About our commercial air conditioning in Drellingore
Air conditioning systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW must have a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. The inspection is carried out by an accredited energy assessor. We do not carry out the inspection itself, but we prepare the system and do the work it recommends. The work covers ducted systems, multi-split systems and VRF systems, and people most often call us about server rooms running too warm and new tenancies needing cooling and heating.
For a business near Drellingore, outdoor units usually have room at the back of the building, out of sight and away from neighbours.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Let and managed properties
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’re happy to deal with whoever it is.
For anyone managing more than one building, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
What happens on the day
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Drellingore.
- An engineer walks the building with you to understand its layout, its users and its heat sources.
- The written quote is fixed and lists the plant, where it goes and the order of works.
- We agree a programme that suits the site, including evening, weekend or phased installation.
- On site, the team mounts the plant, runs and proves the pipework, and wires the controls.
- The system is commissioned and you receive the F-gas records, handover notes and manufacturer paperwork.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Let us know where we can park and unload

Advice
FAQs for Drellingore
Will you come out to Drellingore?
Yes. Drellingore is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Drellingore?
It can. Drellingore is within about 2 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
How does the warranty work?
Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
How the job changes from property to property
Ceiling cassettes
Ceiling cassettes spread air across a room from a single grille. They suit open-plan offices, shops and restaurants with suspended ceilings.
Server and comms rooms
Adding a second unit gives resilience and we can explain how they would work together.
Cooling for Drellingore businesses
The coast is only about 2 miles from Drellingore. Commercial condensers near the coast should be checked for corrosion on every maintenance visit. Food Standards Agency records list about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens in and around Drellingore, up to about a mile and a half out. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use. Drellingore’s centre falls inside a designated conservation area. That matters for air conditioning: permitted development doesn’t 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 is not covered at all, so we check with the local planning authority (normally Dover council) where necessary.
For a surgery or clinic in the Royal Victoria Hospital area, a planned maintenance contract keeps the system clean and its records up to date. Before any plant goes outside a building like Church of St Michael, its trustees may need planning or heritage advice, and we work with whoever gives it.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.

A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
