Surrey · Commercial air conditioning
Esher commercial air conditioning
We cover Esher for commercial air conditioning. Diagnosis first, a fixed price and proper paperwork when we finish.
- Systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection
- Workspaces that overheat on warm days
- Older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer
Commercial air conditioning in Esher, done properly
There’s no single best commercial system. Splits for small rooms, cassettes for open-plan ceilings, ducted for a hidden finish and VRF or VRV for many zones on one system. We explain the options and why we’d choose one over another. If the problem is older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer and fit-outs and refurbishments that need new air conditioning, we can help.
Around Esher, many businesses choose systems that heat as well as cool, which can replace old heaters in shops and offices.
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 are happy to talk you through them.

Business air conditioning in Esher
There are about 42 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 7 schools and colleges and about 7 care homes, nurseries and hospitals in and around Esher, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use.
For a school like Milbourne Lodge School, air conditioning work is best done out of term.

Common problems we fix in Esher
Heat builds up in commercial spaces from occupants, equipment, lighting and sunshine and windows alone can’t always shift it. A system sized for the real heat load deals with it.
Common reasons people call us include:
- Changes of use that need a new layout
- Comms rooms without enough cooling
- Work raised by a TM44 inspection
Offices near Esher station often need cooling for meeting rooms and server cupboards as well as the main space.

Esher questions
Will you come out to Esher?
Yes. Esher 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.
Can I fit air conditioning in Esher without planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The Esher Conservation Area is close to the centre of Esher. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to Elmbridge council, which is normally the planning authority for Esher when it matters.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Esher and across Surrey. Let us know who the records should go to.
How long will it take to install air conditioning in our building?
As a guide, it takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. Out-of-hours and phased work can spread the programme though it keeps disruption down.
What does the operator have to do under the F-gas rules?
Operators of systems from 5 tCO2e upwards need leak checks and records. Checks are at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e, and we can handle both.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim and we’ll tell you what your brand asks for.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. You get a written record of each visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
How it works
You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. In a place like Esher, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.
- First comes a site survey of the building, its occupancy and the heat it has to deal with.
- The written quote is fixed and lists the plant, where it goes and the order of works.
- Dates are set with you so trading, teaching or treatment carries on, using evenings, weekends or phases where it helps.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Looking after your system
After the visit, a few habits help:
- Plan replacements before old systems fail
- Report noises, leaks and faults early
- Book a maintenance contract to keep servicing on schedule
If anything doesn’t feel right after the install, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll come back to it. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns.
Make sure filters are maintained and outdoor units have space. Restricted airflow puts strain on the whole system.

From one of our customers
“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.”
