Southampton · Commercial air conditioning
Commercial air con in Bassett
For commercial air conditioning in Bassett, choose an F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved company. A fixed price before any work starts, and a 24/7 emergency line.
- Work raised by a TM44 inspection
- Buildings that cannot close for the work
- Commercial systems near the end of their life
Leave it or put it right?
A well-planned programme lets the building stay open while the work goes on. Leaving it until a system fails can mean urgent work at the worst moment. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
What you pay depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, how easy the units are to reach and what the work involves. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

How we handle commercial air conditioning in Bassett
Commercial air conditioning comes with F-gas duties for the operator. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks, and records kept of the checks and the work done. We handle the checks and records and remind you when the next is due. If you’re dealing with R410A systems getting dearer to top up and buildings that can’t close for the work, we can help.
For a business in or near Bassett, an air-to-air system can heat and cool, which can replace old heaters in shops and offices.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Commercial air conditioning around Bassett
The coast is only about 3 miles from Bassett. Salt air shortens the life of unprotected outdoor coils, so coastal commercial systems need the right kit and regular servicing. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 71 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 5 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses and about 25 schools and colleges within about 1.5 miles of central Bassett. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use. 2 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Bassett. If your property is listed or sits inside a conservation area, expect us to raise planning at the survey and to speak to Southampton council, normally the planning authority here where it’s needed.
For a surgery or clinic in the Princess Anne Hospital area, a planned maintenance contract keeps the system clean and its records up to date. For a church or hall like St Michael and All Angels Church, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first.

Around Bassett
Around Bassett, our work takes us to homes and businesses near The Bellemoor pub, Southampton Common and Saint George Catholic Voluntary Aided College Southampton and the streets around them.

How it works
The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building, and we clear up before we go. Around Bassett, access is usually simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
- We set out the options, the price and the programme.
- We install around your hours, phased where needed.
- We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
Getting a price
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.
Advice
Looking after your system
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:
- Plan replacements before old systems fail
- Report noises, leaks and faults early
- Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
After commissioning, you get the F-gas records, handover notes and the manufacturer’s paperwork. Keep them together for future servicing and inspections.
Plan replacements before old systems fail especially where top-up refrigerant is getting harder to buy.

Common questions in Bassett
Do you cover Bassett for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Bassett is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Bassett?
It can. Bassett is within about 3 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
When will I hear back?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance for businesses?
Yes, with visits planned around the site. For breakdowns, there’s a 24/7 emergency line.
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
Not always. On a house, air-to-water heat pumps and, since 2025, air-to-air systems that heat as well as cool can be permitted development if they meet the conditions. Cooling-only units, listed buildings, flats and road-facing spots in conservation areas are where it typically comes up and the survey picks it up. This is general information, not legal advice.
