What we do, step by step

If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins so it doesn’t catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone. Let us know how to reach the outside wall or outdoor unit at your property near Dibden.

  1. First comes a site survey of the building, its occupancy and the heat it has to deal with.
  2. A fixed-price quote follows, covering the system type, the layout and the timing.
  3. Installation is scheduled to fit the business, with out-of-hours and phased work where needed.
  4. Indoor and outdoor units, pipework, condensate and controls are installed and the electrics connected.
  5. Commissioning, F-gas records and a handover of the controls finish the job.

How to prepare

  • Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in

Advice

Commercial air conditioning in Dibden, done properly

Server rooms and comms rooms need cooling that keeps going. We look at the heat load and how the room is used, and can discuss backup units so one failure does not take everything down. If you are dealing with systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection and IT rooms that need resilient cooling, we can help.

Around Dibden, commercial jobs are normally a shop, surgery, pub, office or workshop. Many need just one to four indoor units, sized from a site survey.

Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after it is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Book a maintenance contract to keep servicing on schedule
  • Report noises, leaks and faults early
  • Plan the air conditioning alongside the fit-out

For systems that require leak checks, the first date goes in the diary and we can cover it under a contract.

Train staff to use the controls sensibly. Systems fighting each other, or set to extremes, waste effort and correct settings avoid it.

Business air conditioning in Dibden

At about 2 miles from the coast, Dibden is close enough for sea air to matter. Commercial condensers near the coast should be checked for corrosion on every maintenance visit. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 17 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 4 hotels and guest houses and about 10 schools and colleges within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Dibden. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use.

For a surgery or clinic in the Royal South Hants Hospital area, a planned maintenance contract keeps the system clean and its records up to date.

Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Dibden

Can you do commercial air conditioning in Dibden?

Yes. Dibden is one of the places we cover. To start, ring 07833 053749 or send an email with a few photos.

Is Dibden within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Will I need planning permission?

That depends on what’s being fitted and where. Heat pumps on houses in England can be permitted development when they meet set conditions, including the MCS 020(a) noise check, while a unit that only cools is not covered and needs checking with the council. Listed buildings, conservation areas and flats have extra limits. This is general information, not legal advice.

When is a TM44 inspection required?

If the air conditioning has an effective rated output over 12 kW, an inspection is required at least every 5 years. The rules are set out on GOV.UK, and we can help you prepare.

How does the warranty work?

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

When will I hear back?

You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

Do you protect the property while you work?

We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Dibden

For anyone managing more than one building, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.

Common problems we fix in Dibden

Older systems running on R410A face rising costs for top-ups as the GB HFC phase-down tightens supply. Servicing and repairing R410A systems is still allowed though it’s worth bearing in mind when planning ahead.

The things we’re asked about most are:

  • Older systems that can’t keep up
  • New tenancies needing cooling and heating
  • Missing F-gas records for commercial systems

If you look after a school such as Applemore College, classroom, office and IT room cooling is normally installed in the holidays.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
  • Whether the quote shows VAT clearly
  • Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
