About our commercial air conditioning in Boxford
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 new tenancies needing cooling and heating and comms rooms without enough cooling, across multi-split systems, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems.
In a village like Boxford, commercial air conditioning is usually for a pub, a shop, a surgery, a village hall or a rural business. Older buildings may be listed, so planning comes first.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Every visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system and we are happy to deal with whoever it is.
How the visit works
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally we test, record and explain. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Visits to Boxford are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
How to prepare
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area

Boxford: your questions answered
Will air conditioning in Boxford need planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The Boxford and Westbrook Conservation Area is close to the centre of Boxford. 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 local planning authority (for Boxford, normally West Berkshire council).
Is Boxford in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Boxford is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Will you make a mess?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
What types of commercial air conditioning do you install?
We install wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF systems. The right one depends on the building and how it’s used.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
How the job changes from property to property
Offices
Office cooling has to cope with people, computers, lighting and sunshine. We size the system for the actual heat load and choose units that suit the ceiling and layout.
VRF and VRV systems
Larger systems carry more refrigerant so leak checks and records often apply. We work out the tCO2e and set the check schedule.
