About our commercial air conditioning in Fair Oak
Most businesses need to keep trading while the work is done. We plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs so disruption is kept down. The programme is agreed before work begins. Typical jobs include offices that get too hot in summer and buildings that can’t close for the work, across ducted systems, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems.
Around Fair Oak, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, shops, halls, surgeries and farm or rural businesses. Older buildings may be listed, so planning comes first.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Fair Oak: your questions answered
Is Fair Oak within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Fair Oak?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The half-mile around the middle of Fair Oak holds about 8 listed buildings and structures. 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 planning department at Basingstoke and Deane council, normally the authority for Fair Oak.
Can you look after our air conditioning after it’s installed?
Yes, and we tailor the schedule to the system and how hard it works. For breakdowns, there’s a 24/7 emergency line.
What kind of air conditioning can you install in a business?
From one wall-mounted unit to VRF across several floors. Cassettes and ducted units are common choices for open-plan and visible spaces.
When will I hear back?
You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.

How the visit works
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. For a place like Fair Oak, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- It starts with a survey on site, looking at the space, the people in it and the equipment.
- A fixed-price quote follows, covering the system type, the layout and the timing.
- We agree a programme that suits the site, including evening, weekend or phased installation.
- Indoor and outdoor units, pipework, condensate and controls are installed and the electrics connected.
- Commissioning, F-gas records and a handover of the controls finish the job.
How to prepare
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in

What air conditioning won’t do

- Fire safety design or fire risk assessments

Look out for these signs:
- Workspaces that overheat on warm days
- Older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer
- F-gas leak checks and records that are overdue
