Commercial air conditioning in Bocking, done properly
Server rooms and comms rooms need cooling that keeps going. We look at the heat load and how the room is used, and can discuss backup units, so a single fault doesn’t leave the room without cooling. Typical jobs include offices that get too hot in summer and work raised by a TM44 inspection, on VRF systems, server and comms room cooling and ceiling cassettes.
In a place like Bocking, commercial air conditioning is often for a shop, a surgery, a pub, an office unit or a farm business. Most need one to four indoor units, and we size them from a survey.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

What else we do in Bocking
How we price commercial air conditioning
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The pipe route between the units
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
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 we start, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
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, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
What owners can safely do
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Different systems, different jobs
F-gas records and TM44
The operator of a system at or above 5 tCO2e must have it leak checked and keep records. We do the checks and give you the paperwork.
Server and comms rooms
IT equipment produces heat around the clock, so the cooling has to run continuously. The design is based on the equipment’s heat output.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. A few pictures let us plan a visit to a place like Bocking.
- An engineer walks the building with you to understand its layout, its users and its heat sources.
- We send a fixed-price quote showing the system, the unit positions and how the work will be phased.
- We agree a programme that suits the site, including evening, weekend or phased installation.
- Indoor and outdoor units, pipework, condensate and controls are installed and the electrics connected.
- The system is commissioned and you receive the F-gas records, handover notes and manufacturer paperwork.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Advice
Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Bocking
Is air conditioning in Bocking permitted development?
It depends on the property. Central Bocking is a short walk from the Braintree Town Centre and Bradford Street Conservation Area. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the planning department at Braintree council, normally the authority for Bocking.
Is Bocking within the area you cover?
Yes. Bocking is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. You get a written record of each visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
Can you work around our opening hours?
Yes, the programme is built around the site. Every type of building has its own pattern, and we plan for them.
How soon will you get back to me?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
A customer’s words
“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.”
