System by system
F-gas records and TM44
An accredited energy assessor carries out the TM44 inspection. We are not assessors, but we prepare the system and carry out the improvements the report recommends.
Shops and restaurants
Shops and restaurants need comfortable customers and staff. We plan installs outside trading hours where possible so the doors can stay open.
How we handle commercial air conditioning in Elder Street
The right system depends on the building. Wall-mounted splits suit small offices and single rooms, cassettes suit open ceilings, ducted units hide away in ceiling voids, and VRF or VRV serves many rooms from shared outdoor units. We explain the options and why we’d choose one over another. The work covers multi-split systems, ducted systems and server and comms room cooling, and people most often call us about systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection and missing F-gas records for commercial systems.
For a hall or similar building near Elder Street, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use, and it can heat as well as cool.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, and that takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. If a lane or gateway near Elder Street is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- We survey the site and talk through how each area is used.
- We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

Elder Street questions
Can you do commercial air conditioning in Elder Street?
Yes. Elder Street is one of the places we cover. To start, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few pictures.
Will air conditioning in Elder Street need planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The half-mile around the middle of Elder Street holds about 6 listed buildings and structures. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that aren’t used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with Uttlesford council, which is usually the planning authority for Elder Street.
How much time does a commercial air con install need?
Expect it to take a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. The size of the building, the system and any phasing make the biggest difference, and we set out the timing with your quote.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
When will I hear back?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.
Which commercial systems do you fit?
We install wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF systems. We recommend the type that suits your space.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Elder Street
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. 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.
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.”
