Common questions in Coombe
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Coombe?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Around 4 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Coombe. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones can’t, 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 Croydon council, usually the authority for Coombe.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Coombe?
Normally, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
What’s the price of air conditioning for a business?
Commercial systems are priced after a site survey. The building, the heat load, the system type and the programme all affect the cost, and you get a fixed-price quote before work starts.
Do you carry out TM44 inspections?
TM44 inspections are carried out by accredited energy assessors, which we are not. We get the system ready and act on the findings.
Commercial air conditioning in Coombe, done properly
Most businesses need to keep trading while the work is done. We plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs so disruption is kept down. The programme is agreed before work begins. If you’re dealing with missing F-gas records for commercial systems and offices that get too hot in summer, we can sort it out.
London buildings in Coombe can have little space for outdoor plant, so roofs, light wells and basements are common positions. VRF systems can serve many indoor units from a small number of outdoor units, which helps in dense areas.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: 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. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

What happens on the day
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, test what we’ve done and talk you through it.

If your building in Coombe has a managing agent, a concierge or sign-in rules, mention them when you book.

Advice
Different systems, different jobs
Ducted systems
The unit needs room in the void and an access hatch so filters and drains can be reached.
Shops and restaurants
Dining areas fill and empty over the course of service and the controls need to handle that.

Commercial air conditioning around Coombe
Food Standards Agency data counts about 95 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 10 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses and about 26 schools and colleges within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Coombe. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms. About 43% of homes in Coombe and the neighbourhoods around it date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data, and the last census (2021) found about 54% of households live in flats. Where shops and offices sit below or beside homes, outdoor plant position and noise need extra care. London commercial jobs normally involve a landlord or managing agent, and plant space is often tight.
Clinics, dental practices and pharmacies around National Psychosis Unit (about 2.1 miles north-east) usually want quiet indoor units with filters that are simple to keep clean. A bursar or site manager at a school like Coombe Wood School will want the install planned around the school calendar, and we work to that.

When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Acting as the energy assessor
- Gas boiler or heating plumbing work
- Planning permission or landlord consent on your behalf

Safe owner checks
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Owner care supports servicing; it does not replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
A customer’s words
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
