Commercial air conditioning in Great Bentley
Many sites need more than cooling. Air conditioning systems can heat as well as cool, and we also install ventilation and MVHR for a joined-up system. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, server and comms room cooling and ducted systems, and common reasons people get in touch are leak check schedules that have slipped and systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection.
In a place like Great Bentley, commercial air conditioning is often for a shop, a surgery, a pub, an office unit or a farm business. Many need just one to four indoor units, sized from a site survey.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Looking after your system
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:
- Avoid units heating and cooling the same space
- Keep plant areas tidy
- Plan regular servicing with a contract
The warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s, on its own terms. We explain the terms for your brand, including any servicing conditions, so you know what’s needed.
Planned maintenance is the best way to keep a commercial system healthy. The schedule and cost are fixed up front.

Great Bentley: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Great Bentley?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Great Bentley?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Great Bentley sits inside the Great Bentley Conservation Area. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, 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 Tendring council, typically the authority for Great Bentley.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
Systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor carries it out and we can help before and after.
Can you work around our opening hours?
We can. We fit the installation around when the building is in use, including phased work floor by floor.
Do you carry out TM44 inspections?
We do not carry out the inspection itself, as it needs an accredited energy assessor. Our part is getting the system ready and doing the follow-up work.
What are the F-gas responsibilities for commercial air conditioning?
For systems at or above 5 tCO2e, the operator must have leak checks carried out and keep 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 carry out the checks and keep the records.
Can you look after our air conditioning after it’s installed?
Yes. With a contract, servicing and F-gas checks happen on time and each visit is recorded.
