Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
5.1 s44 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.1 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 611 KiBAbout 611 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.4 s · 290 KiB9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (290 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 39
39/100Your mobile performance score is 39. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Reduce unused CSS
900 ms · 179 KiBAbout 179 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and userway.org and others), adding 992 KiB and 792 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 460 ms
460 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 460 ms of main-thread work and 526 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Minify JavaScript
300 ms · 34 KiB34 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Hubspot adds 292 ms
292 msHubspot costs a phone 292 ms of main-thread work and 314 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 2.6 s
A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,095 HTML elements
The page has 2,095 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 189 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 10 KiB10 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
24 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Improve image delivery
8 KiB1 image could be 8 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 23 ms
23 msYour server sent the HTML in 23 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Total Blocking Time: 188 ms
188 msScripts block the page for only 188 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.6 MB in 110 requests
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 110 requests on a phone: images 1.6 MB (20), scripts 1.3 MB (38) and fonts 464 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.03 g of CO₂e: 123.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
23 text elements with low contrast
23 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (30 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 30 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 23 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Airedale by Modine” and “Airedale by Modine”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
252 internal links, 13 external
The homepage links to 252 pages on airedale.com and 13 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 141 characters
Your meta description is 141 characters: “Airedale by Modine are a global manufacturer of intelligent cooling systems that help deliver sophisticated and innovat…”.

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.airedale.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
No llms.txt
There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,741 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

17 of 20 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

Security and trust
No HSTS header
No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
No clickjacking protection
Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (airedale.com).
Valid certificate (43 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for airedale.com and is valid for another 43 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://airedale.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 51 links work
All 51 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 11 external) answered without errors; 6 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
airedale.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
3 checks passed
Domain is 26 years old
26 yearsairedale.com was registered in Aug 2000 through Cloudflare, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
DNSSEC is on
airedale.com's DNS answers are signed (DNSSEC), so they can't be forged on the way to visitors.
Registered until Aug 2030
airedale.com is registered until Aug 2030.
Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 customer or partner logo. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 571 words of copy
The homepage carries about 571 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “DOWNLOAD OUR SOLUTIONS GUIDE”.
6 calls to action
The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Contact Us” and “DOWNLOAD OUR SOLUTIONS GUIDE”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics, Hotjar, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight.
Email authentication
SPF does not block other senders (no all)
Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 redirect=8212194b._1.usb.2._d.mim.ec”.
Email authentication score: 85/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “selector2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and HubSpot (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
17 cookies set on arrival
17Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
24 other companies contacted
