How we handle commercial air conditioning in Five Wents
Every commercial job is commercial systems priced after survey. The survey covers the space, its occupancy, its heat sources and its opening hours, and a fixed-price quote follows. That way the system fits the site and the price is clear before work starts. If the problem is new tenancies needing cooling and heating and older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer, we can sort it out.
If you run a village hall or similar building near Five Wents, heating and cooling that warms up fast suits a space used on and off.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

How the visit works
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Five Wents.
- 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.
- We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
How to get a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
