Commercial air conditioning near Charlton

The process

The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours. If a lane or gateway near Charlton is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.

  1. First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
  2. We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
  3. We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
  4. We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
  5. Commissioning and handover follow, with the F-gas records and manufacturer paperwork.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
  • Let us know where the consumer unit is
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

Commercial air conditioning in Charlton, done properly

Commercial air conditioning is a big part of what we do, for businesses in Charlton and the rest of Hampshire. Offices, shops, restaurants, hotels, schools and server rooms all come with different demands and we choose the system to suit the space and the way it’s used. Common call-outs are for work raised by a TM44 inspection and ageing air conditioning that keeps breaking down, across ducted systems, wall-mounted split systems and server and comms room cooling.

For a hall or similar building near Charlton, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use.

Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Questions from Charlton

Is Charlton in your area for commercial air conditioning?

Yes, Charlton is within the area we cover. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few photos.

Will you come out to Charlton?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Do I get paperwork after the visit?

Yes. You get a written record of every visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.

How often is a TM44 inspection needed?

Where the air conditioning is over 12 kW, an inspection is needed at least every 5 years. It’s carried out by an accredited energy assessor and we can help before and after.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

Will skipping a service affect the warranty?

Each manufacturer decides. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.

What accreditations do you have?

We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We’re also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.

Fixed-price quotes for commercial air conditioning in Charlton

Our prices page gives typical ranges, but every job is priced on its own. What we look at:

  • The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
  • Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
  • What we find on the survey or diagnosis

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

What to send for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:

  • The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
  • The fuse board and where it is in the property
  • Any error code or flashing light on the display

Quotes do not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.

Cooling for Charlton businesses

Food Standards Agency records list about 55 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 7 schools and colleges and about 19 care homes, nurseries and hospitals within about 1.5 miles of central Charlton. Restaurants, hotels, schools and care settings each need cooling designed for their hours and heat loads. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 9 within half a mile of the centre, such as Wren Cottage (grade II). That matters for air conditioning: permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t go on a wall or roof facing a road, and a unit used only for cooling isn’t covered at all, so we check with the planning team at Test Valley council, which normally handles Charlton where necessary.

For a church or hall like St Thomas, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first.

When to call us in Charlton

Heat builds up in commercial spaces from occupants, equipment, lighting and sunshine, and opening windows doesn’t always help. Air conditioning sized to the actual heat gain keeps the space comfortable.

These are the situations we see most often:

  • Planning ahead for the HFC phase-down
  • IT rooms that need resilient cooling
  • Older systems that can’t keep up

Offices near Andover station often need cooling for meeting rooms and server cupboards as well as the main space.
