- First comes a site survey of the building, its occupancy and the heat it has to deal with.
- A fixed-price quote follows, covering the system type, the layout and the timing.
- Installation is scheduled to fit the business, with out-of-hours and phased work where necessary.
- We fit the units, run and test the pipework, connect the condensate and wire in the controls.
- Commissioning, F-gas records and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Getting ready for the visit

Questions from Hollingbourne
Will you come out to Hollingbourne?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is air conditioning in Hollingbourne permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The Hollingbourne Upper Street Conservation Area takes in the middle of Hollingbourne. 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 Maidstone council, typically the authority for Hollingbourne when it matters.
Do you carry out TM44 inspections?
We don’t carry out the inspection itself, as it needs an accredited energy assessor. What we do is prepare the system and carry out the improvements the report suggests.
Can you look after our air conditioning after it’s installed?
We do. With a contract, servicing and F-gas checks happen on time and each visit is recorded.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
What does the operator have to do under the F-gas rules?
The operator and the service technicians share responsibility. The operator must make sure leak checks are done where required and records are kept, and we provide both.
How does the warranty work?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some brands make regular servicing a condition so it’s worth keeping the service records.
What the work involves, system by system
Hotels and schools
Schools often need installs during the holidays, with the programme agreed well in advance.
Shops and restaurants
Where appearance matters, ducted or cassette units keep equipment out of sight.

Looking after your system
Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Leave space around outdoor units
- Budget for replacing ageing plant
- Book a maintenance contract to keep servicing on schedule
After commissioning, you get the F-gas records, handover notes and the manufacturer’s paperwork. They’ll be needed for servicing, leak checks and TM44 inspections.
Keep records of every service, leak check and repair. They’re part of the operator’s F-gas duties for systems that need checks.
Pricing commercial air conditioning in Hollingbourne
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- What kind of system it is
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- The size of the job
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone us on 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
Quotes don’t take long. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.
