What we do, step by step
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Ibthorpe easier.
- 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.
- 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 access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
Getting a price
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.
Related advice
Commercial air conditioning in Ibthorpe, done properly
Where equipment generates heat around the clock, the cooling has to keep pace. We look at the heat load and how the room is used, and can discuss backup units so one failure does not take everything down. Common call-outs are for planning ahead for the HFC phase-down and leak check schedules that have slipped, on wall-mounted split systems, ceiling cassettes and multi-split systems.
For a hall or similar building near Ibthorpe, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use, and it can heat as well as cool.

What happens if it’s left?
Where the system is over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is due at least every 5 years. The recommendations often point to simple improvements, and we can carry out the work. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
No two properties are the same, so we price each one individually. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed-price quote.
Common questions in Ibthorpe
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Ibthorpe?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Ibthorpe sits inside the Hurstbourne Tarrant and Ibthorpe Conservation Area. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones can’t, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact Test Valley council, which is normally the planning authority for Ibthorpe.
Is Ibthorpe in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Ibthorpe is part of that. Just give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few details.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
Over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is needed at least every 5 years. GOV.UK has guidance on how it works, and we can help you prepare.
Do you carry out TM44 inspections?
The inspection itself must be done by an accredited energy assessor. Our part is getting the system ready and doing the follow-up work.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, the approach is the same: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
How much time does a commercial air con install need?
Expect it to take anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. The size of the building, the system and any phasing make the biggest difference and the programme comes with your quote.

Do you need commercial air conditioning in Ibthorpe?
Restaurants and hotels need comfortable rooms for guests and staff. Dining rooms, bedrooms and function rooms all have different patterns of use and that shapes the system and the controls.
Customers usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Missing F-gas records for commercial systems
- TM44 recommendations that need acting on
- Older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer
Churches and halls such as Church of St Peter are often used a few hours at a time, which suits a system that heats or cools a space quickly, once consents are in place.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- If the figure could change on the day
- Whether extra work needs your approval first
