About our commercial air conditioning in Jacob's Post
Every commercial job is commercial systems priced after survey. We look at the building, the people in it, the equipment and the hours it’s used, then send a fixed-price quote. That way the system fits the site and the price is clear before work starts. Typical jobs include installs that must fit around trading hours and offices that get too hot in summer, on multi-split systems, ceiling cassettes and server and comms room cooling.
Around Jacob's Post, there’s normally space for outdoor plant away from the road.
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. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

What commercial work looks like in Jacob's Post
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 46 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 5 schools and colleges and about 25 care, childcare and hospital premises within about 1.5 miles of central Jacob's Post. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms.
Clinics, dental practices and pharmacies around The Dene Hospital (about 1.2 miles west) usually want quiet indoor units with filters that are simple to keep clean. For a school like The Gattons Infant School, air conditioning work is best done out of term.

Jacob's Post questions
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Jacob's Post?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central Jacob's Post is a short walk from the Fairfield Conservation Area. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that aren’t used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with the planning department at Mid Sussex council, typically the authority for Jacob's Post.
Will you come out to Jacob's Post?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
What does the operator have to do under the F-gas rules?
The duties depend on how much refrigerant the system holds. From 5 tCO2e, leak checks and records are needed with automatic leak detection at 500 tCO2e and above.
How long does a commercial installation take?
The work takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. We confirm the timing after the survey, so call us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier to arrange one.
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.
Looking after your system
To keep the system working properly:
- Report noises, leaks and faults early
- Track when the next TM44 inspection is due
- Keep F-gas records together and up to date
For systems over 12 kW, keep track of the 5-yearly TM44 inspection. We can prepare the system and act on the report.
Replace ageing systems on your own timetable, particularly where they use R410A.

From one of our customers
“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.”
