Commercial air conditioning in Fordham Heath, done properly

Air conditioning systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW must have a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. The inspection is carried out by an accredited energy assessor; we’re not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ducted systems and multi-split systems, and people most often call us about R410A systems getting dearer to top up and work raised by a TM44 inspection.

For a business near Fordham Heath, outdoor units usually have room at the back of the building.

Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

For landlords and property managers

Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.

What we are called out for in Fordham Heath

Schools and public buildings often need work done in the holidays. Installation can be programmed for the holidays so lessons aren’t disrupted.

If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Changes of use that need a new layout
  • Server rooms running too warm
  • Systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection

For a surgery or clinic in the Essex County Hospital area, a planned maintenance contract keeps the system clean and its records up to date.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
  • Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
  • Whether they looked at the job before pricing it

Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Fordham Heath

Do you cover Fordham Heath for commercial air conditioning?

Do you cover smaller places like Fordham Heath?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

What F-gas duties does a business have?

The duties depend on how much refrigerant the system holds. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks and records, and from 500 tCO2e automatic leak detection is required.

How often is a TM44 inspection needed?

At over 12 kW, inspections are due at least every 5 years. The inspection is done by an accredited assessor, and we do the follow-up work.

How much does commercial air conditioning cost?

Commercial systems are priced after a site survey. The building, the heat load, the system type and the programme all affect the cost, and you get a fixed-price quote before work starts.

When will I hear back?

The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.

Do you provide ongoing maintenance for businesses?

Yes, maintenance contracts cover servicing, F-gas leak checks and records. We agree the schedule and cost up front.

When it’s something else

In fairness, some problems need a different answer:

  • Formal planning decisions, which rest with the council
  • Fire safety design or fire risk assessments
  • Carrying out the TM44 inspection itself, which needs an accredited energy assessor

What happens on the day

Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building, and we clear up before we go. Visits to Fordham Heath are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We survey the site and talk through how each area is used.
  2. We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
  3. We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
  4. The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
  5. We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.

How to prepare

  • Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
  • Mention any parking restrictions near the property
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

How to get a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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 many jobs can be priced from that.

Advice

What a customer said

“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.”
