About our commercial air conditioning in Addiscombe
Commercial air conditioning comes with F-gas duties for the operator. Leak checks and records are required for systems from 5 tCO2e upwards. We handle the checks and records and remind you when the next is due. The work covers VRF systems, server and comms room cooling and wall-mounted split systems, and common reasons people get in touch are installs that must fit around trading hours and offices that get too hot in summer.
Commercial systems in Addiscombe are often in shared buildings: offices above shops, restaurants below flats. That means planning noise, outdoor unit positions and access with the landlord or managing agent, and installs are often done out of hours.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we have done. The more we can see beforehand, the smoother the visit to Addiscombe will be.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- Installation goes ahead around the business.
- The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
Getting a price
Quotes don’t take long. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

What affects the quote in Addiscombe
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- What kind of system it is
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re unsure, call 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
Commercial air conditioning around Addiscombe
Food Standards Agency records list about 138 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 9 hotels and guest houses and about 28 schools and colleges within about 1.5 miles of central Addiscombe. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms. VOA council tax data put about 44% of homes across Addiscombe and its surrounding area before 1919, and Census 2021 figures found about 46% of households in terraced houses. Where shops and offices sit below or beside homes, outdoor plant position and noise need extra care. London commercial jobs typically involve a landlord or managing agent, and plant space is often tight.
A bursar or site manager at a school like Oasis Academy Shirley Park will want the install planned around the school calendar, and we work to that. If you look after a church or hall such as St Mildred's Church, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents.

Common questions in Addiscombe
Is Addiscombe in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. Addiscombe is one of the places we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Addiscombe?
Usually, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
How does the warranty work?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
When will I hear back?
You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
What air conditioning will not do
In fairness, some problems need a different answer:
- Fire strategy sign-off
- Carrying out the TM44 inspection itself, which needs an accredited energy assessor
- Formal planning decisions, which rest with the council
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will say what we think before you book.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Owner care supports servicing; it does not replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
