About our commercial air conditioning in Harbledown
Businesses can’t always stop for an installation. We plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs, so the building keeps running. The programme is agreed before we start. The work covers ducted systems, wall-mounted split systems and ceiling cassettes, and people most often call us about systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection and leak check schedules that have slipped.
In a village like Harbledown, commercial air conditioning is normally for a pub, a shop, a surgery, a village hall or a rural business. Older buildings may be listed, so planning comes first.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Questions from Harbledown
Will you come out to Harbledown?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you cover Harbledown for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. Harbledown is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
How quickly will you reply?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
At over 12 kW, inspections are due at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor does the inspection, and we can carry out the recommended work.
What are the F-gas responsibilities for commercial air conditioning?
Operators of systems from 5 tCO2e upwards need leak checks and records. The intervals are at least yearly from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and 6-monthly from 50 to under 500 tCO2e, and we can handle both.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
The process
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Harbledown can be planned properly.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
- We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
- We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
- Commissioning and handover follow, with the F-gas records and manufacturer paperwork.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from photos and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

Hotels and schools
In schools, the holidays are the natural time for installation, with the programme agreed well in advance.
Server and comms rooms
Planned maintenance is especially important for continuous cooling and we can cover it under a contract.
Safe owner checks
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.

From one of our customers
“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.”
