Once a system is in, it needs looking after. Maintenance contracts cover servicing, F-gas leak checks and the records that go with them, at a price fixed with your quote. Our 24/7 emergency line is there if something goes wrong. We’re often asked to deal with R410A systems getting dearer to top up and staff complaining about the temperature, across multi-split systems, ducted systems and VRF systems.

For a business near Chainhurst, outdoor units usually have room at the back of the building.

Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Looking after it afterwards

Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:

  • Show staff how to use the controls properly
  • Keep a log for each system
  • Review older R410A systems before they need major repairs

Make a note of when a TM44 inspection will be due if the system is over 12 kW. When it comes round, we can get the system ready and carry out the recommendations.

Keep filters clean and plant areas clear. Blocked filters and obstructed outdoor units make the system work harder.

System by system

F-gas records and TM44

Keeping the paperwork up to date helps with inspections, and we keep yours in order.

Offices

Offices gain heat from occupants, equipment and the sun. We size the system for the actual heat load and choose units that suit the ceiling and layout.

What commercial work looks like in Chainhurst

A TM44 report, an F-gas audit or an insurer’s question can prompt the call. We carry out the work and make sure the paperwork is in order and you have the evidence to hand.

Any of these is worth a proper look:

  • Ageing air conditioning that keeps breaking down
  • Comms rooms without enough cooling
  • Systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation

Above 12 kW of effective rated output, an accredited energy assessor has to inspect the system at least every five years.

Questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Chainhurst

Can you do commercial air conditioning in Chainhurst?

We do: Chainhurst falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

Is Chainhurst within the area you cover?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

Do you work on systems someone else installed?

Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.

Do you install in the evenings or at weekends?

Yes, the programme is built around the site. Shops, offices, restaurants and schools all have different needs, and we plan for them.

Will skipping a service affect the warranty?

Each manufacturer decides. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim and we will tell you what your brand asks for.

What are the F-gas responsibilities for commercial air conditioning?

It depends on the system’s tCO2e. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks and records with automatic leak detection at 500 tCO2e and above.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

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 will work out which band applies to yours.

What happens on the day

Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. On site, it takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Chainhurst.

  1. It starts with a survey on site, looking at the space, the people in it and the equipment.
  2. We send a fixed-price quote showing the system, the unit positions and how the work will be phased.
  3. Dates are set with you so trading, teaching or treatment carries on, using evenings, weekends or phases where it helps.
  4. On site, the team mounts the plant, runs and proves the pipework, and wires the controls.
  5. We commission the system, record the refrigerant details and hand over the controls and documents.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
