Commercial air conditioning for Curteis' Corner

What the work involves, system by system

Shops and restaurants

Where appearance matters, ducted or cassette units keep equipment out of sight.

Hotels and schools

If the system is over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is required at least every 5 years, and we prepare for them and act on the findings.

Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Curteis' Corner

The right system depends on the building. Splits for small rooms, cassettes for open-plan ceilings, ducted for a hidden finish and VRF or VRV for many zones on one system. We set out the choices and the reasons behind our recommendation. Common call-outs are for workspaces that overheat on warm days and buildings that can’t close for the work, on VRF systems, multi-split systems and ceiling cassettes.

For a hall or similar building near Curteis' Corner, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use, and it can heat as well as cool.

If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell 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.

What owners can safely do

Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

The process

Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. The visit takes as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours. For a place like Curteis' Corner, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
  2. You get our recommendation and a fixed price.
  3. The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
  4. We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
  5. We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time

Common questions in Curteis' Corner

Do you cover Curteis' Corner for commercial air conditioning?

We do: Curteis' Corner falls inside our working area. Just phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk with a few details.

Can I fit air conditioning in Curteis' Corner without planning permission?

There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central Curteis' Corner sits inside a 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 the local planning authority (for Curteis' Corner, typically Ashford council).

Can you set up regular servicing?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

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.

Will I get records for the system?

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.

How quickly will you reply?

We reply to enquiries the same working day. For a breakdown that can’t wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.

Does my building need a TM44 inspection?

Over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is needed at least every 5 years. GOV.UK has guidance on how it works and we’ll help with the system side.
