Commercial air conditioning in Hollingbury, done properly
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 ducted systems, multi-split systems and VRF systems, and people most often call us about IT rooms that need resilient cooling and planning ahead for the HFC phase-down.
In a place like Hollingbury, commercial air conditioning is often for a shop, a surgery, a pub, an office unit or a farm business. Most need one to four indoor units, sized from a site survey.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Questions from Hollingbury
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Hollingbury?
It can, as Hollingbury 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.
Do you cover Hollingbury for commercial air conditioning?
We do: Hollingbury falls inside our working area. To start, phone 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few pictures.
How soon will you get back to me?
You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, on every job. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer, so keep your service records.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
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 carry out the checks and keep the records.
Rented and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed-price quote.

Business air conditioning in Hollingbury
Hollingbury is within about 3 miles of the coast. Rooftop and wall-mounted plant near the sea needs protecting from salt air, through position, coil coatings where available and regular maintenance. Food Standards Agency data counts about 64 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 4 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses and about 33 schools and colleges in and around Hollingbury, up to about a mile and a half out. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms.
Schools such as Carden Nursery and Primary School normally have the work done in the holidays, when classrooms are empty. Clinics, dental practices and pharmacies around Brighton General Hospital (about 2.1 miles south) typically want quiet indoor units with filters that are simple to keep clean.

Safe owner checks
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
What we do, step by step
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Visits to a place like Hollingbury are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the job needs.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- We install around your hours, phased where needed.
- The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
How to get a quote
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
- Avoid units heating and cooling the same space
- Plan regular servicing with a contract
If the system needs F-gas leak checks, we diary the first one and we can cover it under a contract.
Planned maintenance is the best way to keep a commercial system healthy. We agree the visits and the price with your quote.
From one of our customers
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
