Before you call an engineer
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
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.
How we handle commercial air conditioning in Cuxton
Many sites need more than cooling. Most modern systems can heat and cool, and ventilation and MVHR can be designed alongside, so the building works as a whole. Typical jobs include commercial systems near the end of their life and fit-outs and refurbishments that need new air conditioning, across wall-mounted split systems, server and comms room cooling and VRF systems.
For a hall or similar building near Cuxton, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use, and it can heat as well as cool.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

Cuxton: your questions answered
Is Cuxton in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. Cuxton is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Is Cuxton within the area you cover?
Yes. Cuxton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Do I need planning permission?
That depends on what’s being fitted and where. In England, an air source heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets set conditions, including the MCS 020(a) noise check, while a unit that only cools isn’t covered and needs checking with the council. Listed buildings, conservation areas and flats have extra limits. This is general information, not legal advice.
Are you TM44 assessors?
We don’t carry out the inspection itself, as it needs an accredited energy assessor. Our part is getting the system ready and doing the follow-up work.
What does the operator have to do under the F-gas rules?
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.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
How it works
You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Cuxton.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
- Commissioning and handover follow, with the F-gas records and manufacturer paperwork.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
Getting a quote
Quotes don’t take long. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.

Looking after your system
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:
- Involve us at the planning stage of a refurbishment
- Don’t let servicing slip
- Call about warning signs right away
For systems that require leak checks, the first date goes in the diary and can include it in a maintenance contract.
Planned maintenance is the best way to keep a commercial system healthy. The schedule and cost are fixed up front.
Commercial air conditioning in Cuxton: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 14 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 4 schools and colleges and about 3 care, childcare and hospital premises within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Cuxton. Many of those sites need air conditioning that is sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule. About 3 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Cuxton, Church of St Michael (grade I) among them. That matters for air conditioning: permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot 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 Medway council, typically the planning authority here where needed.
For a school like Cuxton Community Infant School, air conditioning work is best done out of term. Clinics, dental practices and pharmacies around French Hospital (about 2.4 miles east) usually want quiet indoor units with filters that are simple to keep clean.

What else we do in Cuxton
For landlords and property managers
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
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.”
