Itchen Stoke: your questions answered
Is Itchen Stoke in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes, Itchen Stoke is within the area we cover. To start, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few photos.
Can I fit air conditioning in Itchen Stoke without planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The Itchen Stoke Conservation Area takes in the middle of Itchen Stoke. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof is not allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Winchester City council, which is normally the planning authority for Itchen Stoke.
Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?
The inspection itself must be done by an accredited energy assessor. Our part is getting the system ready and doing the follow-up work.
Which commercial systems do you fit?
From one wall-mounted unit to VRF across several floors. Cassettes and ducted units suit offices, shops and restaurants.
What’s the price of air conditioning for a business?
A survey comes first, then a fixed-price quote. The number of zones, the type of system, access and timing all play a part.
How much time does a commercial air con install need?
Expect it to take a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. The size of the building, the system and any phasing make the biggest difference, and we set out the timing with your quote.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Commercial air conditioning in Itchen Stoke
Buildings whose air conditioning totals more than 12 kW need a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor carries it out; we’re not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. Common call-outs are for installs that must fit around trading hours and workspaces that overheat on warm days, across VRF systems, ceiling cassettes and server and comms room cooling.
For a business near Itchen Stoke, outdoor units normally have room at the back of the building.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

What we do, step by step
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. We plan the trip to Itchen Stoke around you.
- We visit the site to look at the building, how it’s used and what the system needs to do.
- You get a fixed-price quote with the equipment, the layout and the programme set out.
- Dates are set with you so trading, teaching or treatment carries on, using evenings, weekends or phases where it helps.
- The system goes in, from units and pipework to drainage, wiring and controls.
- Finally it’s commissioned and handed over, with the refrigerant records and manuals for your files.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.
Advice
System by system
Server and comms rooms
Server rooms generate heat all day and night, so the cooling has to run continuously. We size the system on the heat load.
Hotels and schools
Schools often need installs during the holidays and we plan the programme early.

Before you call an engineer
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are typically the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
What a customer said
“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.”
