Commercial air conditioning near Datchet

Commercial air conditioning in Datchet

Buildings whose air conditioning totals more than 12 kW need a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. The inspection is carried out by an accredited energy assessor. We don’t carry out the inspection itself, but we prepare the system and do the work it recommends. If you’re dealing with TM44 recommendations that need acting on and commercial systems near the end of their life, we can help.

Around Datchet, commercial jobs are normally a shop, surgery, pub, office or workshop. Many need just one to four indoor units, and we size them from a survey.

Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Cooling for Datchet businesses

Many of those sites need air conditioning that’s sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule.

If you look after a school such as Datchet St Mary's CofE Primary School, classroom, office and IT room cooling is usually installed in the holidays.

Datchet: your questions answered

Is Datchet in your area for commercial air conditioning?

Yes, Datchet is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

Will air conditioning in Datchet need planning permission?

It depends on the property. A conservation area takes in the middle of Datchet. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof is not allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask the planning department at Windsor and Maidenhead council, typically the authority for Datchet.

Are you TM44 assessors?

We’re not accredited energy assessors, so we do not inspect. We can prepare for the inspection and put right what it finds.

Will you make a mess?

Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.

Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?

The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

Which manufacturers do you install and repair?

We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.

Is the equipment covered by a warranty?

Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.

How the job changes from property to property

Shops and restaurants

For a discreet finish, ducted systems and cassettes are popular.

Offices

Different areas often need different settings and zoned systems make that possible.

What happens on the day

Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. The visit takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. We load the van from the survey notes so the work in Datchet can be done in one go where possible.

  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. 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

  • Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
  • Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
  • Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
