Commercial air conditioning in Kent Street, done properly
Air conditioning systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW must have a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor carries it out. We do not carry out the inspection itself, but we prepare the system and do the work it recommends. If you are dealing with TM44 recommendations that need acting on and IT rooms that need resilient cooling, we can sort it out.
For a hall or similar building near Kent Street, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

What owners can safely do
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
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. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Different systems, different jobs
VRF and VRV systems
Heat recovery VRF can move heat from rooms that need cooling to rooms that need heating, depending on the system chosen. We explain whether that would help your building.
Offices
Different areas often need different settings, which VRF and multi-split systems can provide.

What affects the cost of commercial air conditioning
Typical ranges are on our prices page, and your quote is built on your job. The quote depends on:
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
Putting several jobs into one visit often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed price.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
Common questions in Kent Street
Do you cover smaller places like Kent Street?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Will air conditioning in Kent Street need planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Around 8 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Kent Street. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that are not used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with Tonbridge and Malling council, which is normally the planning authority for Kent Street.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?
We do not carry out the inspection itself, as it needs an accredited energy assessor. What we do is prepare the system and carry out the improvements the report suggests.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we’ll agree what happens next.
What kind of air conditioning can you install in a business?
We install wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF systems. We recommend the type that suits your space.
How it works
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we have done. For a village like Kent Street, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First comes a site survey of the building, its occupancy and the heat it has to deal with.
- We send a fixed-price quote showing the system, the unit positions and how the work will be phased.
- We agree a programme that suits the site, including evening, weekend or phased installation.
- On site, the team mounts the plant, runs and proves the pipework, and wires the controls.
- Commissioning, F-gas records and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
