Commercial air conditioning in Addington

Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Addington

The right system depends on the building. Splits for small rooms, cassettes for open-plan ceilings, ducted for a hidden finish and VRF or VRV for many zones on one system. We explain the options and why we’d choose one over another. Typical jobs include staff complaining about the temperature and fit-outs and refurbishments that need new air conditioning, on server and comms room cooling, multi-split systems and VRF systems.

For a hall or similar building near Addington, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use.

Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

How we price commercial air conditioning

Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • The number of rooms, units or zones
  • How easy the units are to reach
  • Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract

Several rooms, units or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed price.

Before you get in touch

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • The make and model of the system, from the label
  • Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
  • The address and the type of property

Commercial air conditioning in Addington: local notes

There are about 19 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 10 schools and colleges and about 4 care homes, nurseries and hospitals within about 1.5 miles of central Addington, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Many of those sites need air conditioning that is sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule.

Churches and halls such as Church of St Margaret are often used a few hours at a time, which suits a system that heats or cools a space quickly, once consents are in place. Schools such as Offham Primary School normally have the work done in the holidays, when classrooms are empty.

Common questions in Addington

Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Addington?

That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The half-mile around the middle of Addington holds about 10 listed buildings and structures. An air-to-air system used for heating as well as cooling can be permitted development on a house if it meets the conditions, but a cooling-only unit is not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (for Addington, typically Tonbridge and Malling council).

Is Addington in your area for commercial air conditioning?

We do: Addington falls inside our working area. To start, call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few pictures.

What’s the price of air conditioning for a business?

We price commercial work after visiting the site. It means the system and the programme fit your building and you get a fixed price.

Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?

An accredited energy assessor has to carry out the inspection, and we are not assessors. We prepare systems for inspection and carry out the work the report recommends.

Do you offer commercial maintenance contracts?

We do, with contracts covering servicing, leak checks and the paperwork. We agree the schedule and cost up front.

Can I do any of the installation myself?

Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need and the fixed price is built on it.

Safe owner checks

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.

Different systems, different jobs

F-gas records and TM44

TM44 inspections are done by accredited energy assessors. We are not assessors, but we prepare the system and carry out the improvements the report recommends.

Ducted systems

A single ducted unit can feed several grilles where the layout allows.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. If a lane or gateway near Addington is tight for a van, let us know and we’ll plan for it.

  1. First comes a site survey of the building, its occupancy and the heat it has to deal with.
  2. We send a fixed-price quote showing the system, the unit positions and how the work will be phased.
  3. Installation is scheduled to fit the business, with out-of-hours and phased work where needed.
  4. Indoor and outdoor units, pipework, condensate and controls are installed and the electrics connected.
  5. The system is commissioned and you receive the F-gas records, handover notes and manufacturer paperwork.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Clear access to the fuse board

How to get a quote

Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
