Commercial air conditioning in Emmbrook
The business that operates the system has F-gas responsibilities. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks, and records kept of the checks and the work done. We carry out the checks, keep the records and tell you when the next one is due. If you’re dealing with workspaces that overheat on warm days and TM44 recommendations that need acting on, we can sort it out.
In a place like Emmbrook, commercial air conditioning is often for a shop, a surgery, a pub, an office unit or a farm business. Most need one to four indoor units, and we size them from a survey.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Safe owner checks
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are typically the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.

FAQs for Emmbrook
Can I fit air conditioning in Emmbrook without planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. A conservation area takes in the middle of Emmbrook. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not 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 Wokingham council, usually the authority for Emmbrook.
Can you do commercial air conditioning in Emmbrook?
Yes, Emmbrook is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
How much does commercial air conditioning cost?
After a site survey, with a fixed-price quote. The number of zones, the type of system, access and timing all play a part.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
Where the air conditioning is over 12 kW, an inspection is needed at least every 5 years. It’s carried out by an accredited energy assessor and we can help before and after.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, on every job. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
What does the operator have to do under the F-gas rules?
The duties depend on how much refrigerant the system holds. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks and records with automatic leak detection at 500 tCO2e and above.
Do you work on all makes?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
