About our commercial air conditioning in Appledore
Commercial systems are commercial systems priced after survey. We look at the building, the people in it, the equipment and the hours it’s used, and a fixed-price quote follows. That way the system fits the site and the price is clear before work starts. If the problem is installs that must fit around trading hours and new tenancies needing cooling and heating, we can sort it out.
Around Appledore, there’s usually space for outdoor plant away from the road.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

How it works
Each visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, protect the area, carry out the job, test what we have done and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Appledore.
- We survey the site and talk through how each area is used.
- We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
Getting ready for the visit

Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly:
- Leave space around outdoor units
- Track when the next TM44 inspection is due
- Call about warning signs right away
If the system needs F-gas leak checks, we diary the first one and we can cover it under a contract.
Replace ageing systems on your own timetable especially where top-up refrigerant is getting harder to buy.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Appledore
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Appledore
Is air conditioning in Appledore permitted development?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Appledore sits inside a conservation area. 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 isn’t covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (for Appledore, typically Ashford council).
Is Appledore in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Appledore is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
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. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
Operators of systems from 5 tCO2e upwards need leak checks and records. The intervals are at least yearly from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and 6-monthly from 50 to under 500 tCO2e and we carry out the checks and keep the records.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always look before we price, on a survey, or from your photos and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Carrying out the TM44 inspection itself, which needs an accredited energy assessor
- Fire safety design or fire risk assessments
- Major builder’s work such as new openings in structural walls
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

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.”
