Commercial air conditioning near Coombe Hill

Commercial air conditioning in Coombe Hill

Heating, cooling and fresh air often go together. Most modern systems can heat and cool, and ventilation and MVHR can be designed alongside, so the building works as a whole. The work covers ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and server and comms room cooling, and the jobs we see most are installs that must fit around trading hours and changes of use that need a new layout.

In Coombe Hill, as anywhere in England, larger systems need F-gas leak checks, and over 12 kW of cooling a TM44 inspection is required. We keep the F-gas records and flag what’s coming up.

For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Our hiring checklist

Different systems, different jobs

Ducted systems

A ducted system hides the indoor unit and feeds air to the room through grilles. They’re chosen where appearance matters, such as hotels, restaurants and shops.

Server and comms rooms

IT equipment produces heat around the clock and the cooling must keep up all year. The design is based on the equipment’s heat output.

Commercial air conditioning in Coombe Hill: local notes

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 20 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 9 schools and colleges and about 8 care homes, nurseries and hospitals within about 1.5 miles of central Coombe Hill. Restaurants, hotels, schools and care settings each need cooling designed for their hours and heat loads. In London, commercial installs often need landlord consent, agreed plant positions and out-of-hours working.

If you look after a school such as Robin Hood Primary School, classroom, office and IT room cooling is normally installed in the holidays.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Managed buildings in London often need contractors booked in, and we can deal with the agent for a job in Coombe Hill.

  1. You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
  2. A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
  3. The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
  4. We install around your hours, phased where necessary.
  5. The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.

How to prepare

  • Let us know where we can park and unload
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

What owners can safely do

Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

Common questions in Coombe Hill

Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Coombe Hill?

It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The centre of Coombe Hill is in the Kingston Hill Conservation Area. 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 Kingston-Upon-Thames council, which is usually the planning authority for Coombe Hill.

Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Coombe Hill?

Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder normally have a say. 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.

Which brands do you work with?

We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.

What kind of air conditioning can you install in a business?

We install wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF systems. We recommend the type that suits your space.

Do you work on systems someone else installed?

Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.

What a customer said

“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.”
