Commercial air conditioning in Hammersmith, done properly
Once a system is in, it needs looking after. Maintenance contracts cover servicing, F-gas leak checks and the records that go with them, at a price fixed with your quote. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns. Typical jobs include missing F-gas records for commercial systems and new tenancies needing cooling and heating, across server and comms room cooling, VRF systems and multi-split systems.
In Hammersmith, as anywhere in England, larger systems need F-gas leak checks, and over 12 kW of cooling a TM44 inspection is required. We keep the F-gas records and flag what’s coming up.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Rented and managed buildings
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings book us too across Greater London. Larger buildings can be done in stages around the people who use them.
How the visit works
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it does not catch you out. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. If a freeholder or agent needs to agree the work in Hammersmith, we can send them the details.
- We survey the site and talk through how each area is used.
- You get our recommendation and a fixed price.
- We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
- The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

How the job changes from property to property
Ducted systems
Ducted systems need space above the ceiling and access for servicing so filters and drains can be reached.
Server and comms rooms
A backup unit can keep the room cool if one fails, and we can discuss how they share the load.
Common questions in Hammersmith
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Hammersmith?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Can I fit air conditioning in Hammersmith without planning permission?
It depends on the property. Central Hammersmith sits inside a conservation area. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to the planning department at Hammersmith and Fulham council, usually the authority for Hammersmith when it matters.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. Ask to see proof before you book anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we’ll tell you what to do first.
Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?
We are not accredited energy assessors, so we do not inspect. We help before and after, preparing the system and acting on the report.
Do you work in Hammersmith?
Yes. We work in Hammersmith and across Greater London, as part of our area across London and the South East. To book, phone 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

What commercial work looks like in Hammersmith
There are about 954 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 64 hotels and guest houses and about 83 schools and colleges in and around Hammersmith, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Many of those sites need air conditioning that is sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 68% of homes in Hammersmith and the neighbourhoods around it before 1919, and the 2021 Census found about 79% of households live in flats. Where shops and offices sit below or beside homes, outdoor plant position and noise need extra care. London commercial jobs usually involve a landlord or managing agent, and plant space is often tight.
Around Kensington Olympia station, an office brief might cover an open-plan floor, meeting rooms and a comms cupboard, each with its own needs. For a church or hall like Church of the Holy Innocents, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first.
Hammersmith is about 1 mile west of Kensington, in Greater London. Hammersmith gets the same approach as every job we take on: diagnosis first, a fixed price and proper paperwork when we have finished. Hammersmith is one of 764 towns, villages and districts in Greater London we cover for homes and businesses. London, roughly 6 miles off, has its own page on this site.
Not far from Hammersmith, a recent job of ours was on East Hill, Wandsworth (SW18), about 3 miles south-east: installing a Daikin wall-mounted unit in the open-plan living area.
From The Square, Ravenscourt Square and Westcroft Square to the smaller roads in between, nowhere is left out. Our working area takes in W6, W14, W12 and W4 in full. Close by, we work in Brackenbury Village (1 mile north-west), Brook Green (1 mile east), North End (1 mile east), West Kensington (1 mile east) and Old Chiswick (1 mile south-west). Further out, we also cover London (6 miles east), City of Westminster (4 miles east), Marylebone (4 miles north-east) and St Pancras (5 miles north-east).
Local landmarks in Hammersmith
We fit and service air conditioning in homes and premises around The Duke of Hammersmith pub, Brook Green and Polish Library POSK in London, among other places. The nearest railway station is Kensington Olympia station, roughly 0.8 miles east of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find West London Hospital (less than half a mile south-east) and Kurdish Museum Library and Archive (within half a mile south-west). The countryside around Hammersmith includes Campden Hill and WWT London Wetland Centre.
Leave it or put it right?
R410A systems are still legal to repair, though supply of the gas is tightening. Planning a replacement on your own timetable beats replacing it after a major failure. Approvals for flats in Hammersmith can take longer than the install itself.
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.

“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.”
