Common questions in Easthorpe
Will you come out to Easthorpe?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Easthorpe?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Around 10 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Easthorpe. 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 Easthorpe, usually Colchester council).
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
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.
How often is a TM44 inspection needed?
Where the air conditioning is over 12 kW, an inspection is needed at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor carries it out, and we can prepare the system and act on the report.
About our commercial air conditioning in Easthorpe
The business that operates the system has F-gas responsibilities. Leak checks and records are required for systems from 5 tCO2e upwards. We carry out the checks, keep the records and tell you when the next one is due. If you’re dealing with work raised by a TM44 inspection and missing F-gas records for commercial systems, we can sort it out.
Around Easthorpe, there’s normally space for outdoor plant away from the road.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Why it’s worth doing now in Easthorpe
A well-planned programme lets the building stay open while the work goes on. Waiting for a failure removes that choice. For a village like Easthorpe, booking ahead lets us plan the trip properly.
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. A few tips:
- Leave space around outdoor units
- Involve us at the planning stage of a refurbishment
- Keep F-gas records together and up to date
Should anything seem off after handover, phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will look into it. Our 24/7 emergency line covers breakdowns.
Train staff to use the controls sensibly. Units heating and cooling the same space at once is a common problem, and we can help set them up.
What we do, step by step
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, the work takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Easthorpe.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and access.
- We set out the options, the price and the programme.
- We install around your hours, phased where necessary.
- The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Keep pets and children away from the work area

A backup unit can keep the room cool if one fails, and we can discuss how they share the load.
