Advice
About our commercial air conditioning in Goodnestone
Air conditioning systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW must have a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor carries it out; we are not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. If the problem is TM44 recommendations that need acting on and installs that must fit around trading hours, we can sort it out.
Around Goodnestone, 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: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Do you need commercial air conditioning in Goodnestone?
Ageing systems are a common reason for a call. Parts become harder to find and the system cannot keep up, and replacing it becomes the better option.
The things we’re asked about most are:
- Systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection
- Installs that must fit around trading hours
- New tenancies needing cooling and heating
Before any plant goes outside a building like St Bartholomew's Church, its trustees may need planning or heritage advice, and we work with whoever gives it.
Before you book anyone

FAQs for Goodnestone
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Goodnestone?
It depends on the property. The Goodnestone Conservation Area takes in the middle of Goodnestone. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof isn’t allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Swale council, which is normally the planning authority for Goodnestone.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Goodnestone?
It can, as Goodnestone is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
What are the F-gas responsibilities for commercial air conditioning?
It depends on the system’s tCO2e. From 5 tCO2e, leak checks and records are needed with automatic leak detection at 500 tCO2e and above.
Are you TM44 assessors?
TM44 inspections are carried out by accredited energy assessors, which we are not. We get the system ready and act on the findings.
Do you offer commercial maintenance contracts?
We do, with contracts covering servicing, leak checks and the paperwork. The visits and price are fixed with your quote.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
