What owners can safely do
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are usually the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.

Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Horley
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Horley?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The Horley Row Conservation Area is close to the centre of Horley. 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 Reigate and Banstead council, normally the authority for Horley when it matters.
How do I get a quote for commercial air conditioning in Horley?
Start with a short message: the address, what you need and a picture or two. We reply the same working day, and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
How does the warranty work?
Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns that cannot wait. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
Operators of systems from 5 tCO2e upwards need leak checks and 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.
Do you install in the evenings or at weekends?
Yes, the programme is built around the site. Every type of building has its own pattern and the plan reflects it.
Does my building need a TM44 inspection?
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.

Leave it or put it right?
F-gas leak checks and records are legal duties for most systems at or above 5 tCO2e. Missing checks leaves gaps in the records and a maintenance contract keeps them on track. Getting the work done in Horley before summer is the easy option.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is looked at first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
