Commercial air conditioning in Kentish Town, done properly
Most businesses need to keep trading while the work is done. We plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs so disruption is kept down. The timing is set out with your quote. Typical jobs include new tenancies needing cooling and heating and R410A systems getting dearer to top up, across ceiling cassettes, multi-split systems and VRF systems.
For a business in Kentish Town, the legal side matters too: F-gas leak checks on larger systems, and TM44 inspections where total cooling output is over 12 kW. We keep the F-gas records and flag what’s coming up.
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 you can do yourself, and what needs us
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do 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.
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.

How the visit works
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before we start, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours. Some blocks in Kentish Town need contractor details in advance, so tell us what your building needs.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas

Kentish Town questions
Is Kentish Town in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes, Kentish Town is within the area we cover. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few photos.
Will air conditioning in Kentish Town need planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The Harmood Street Conservation Area is close to the centre of Kentish Town. 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 Camden council, typically the authority for Kentish Town.
Does my building need a TM44 inspection?
If the air conditioning has an effective rated output over 12 kW, an inspection is required at least every 5 years. GOV.UK has guidance on how it works, and we can help you prepare.
What’s the price of air conditioning for a business?
After a site survey, with a fixed-price quote. Factors include the number of areas, the system type, access and any out-of-hours or phased work.
Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?
TM44 inspections are carried out by accredited energy assessors, which we are not. We get the system ready and act on the findings.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Kentish Town and across Greater London. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer, so keep your service records.
What commercial work looks like in Kentish Town
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 756 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 34 hotels and guest houses and about 55 schools and colleges within about 1.5 miles of central Kentish Town. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use. About 43% of homes across Kentish Town and its surrounding area were built before 1919, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the last census (2021) found about 86% of households live in flats. Where shops and offices sit below or beside homes, outdoor plant position and noise need extra care. For London businesses, plant position, noise and access are planned with the building first.
For a church or hall like Church of the Holy Trinity with St Barnabas, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first. Schools such as Holy Trinity and Saint Silas CofE Primary School usually have the work done in the holidays, when classrooms are empty.

What air conditioning will not do
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what commercial air conditioning will not do:
- Getting landlord or building owner approval
- Boiler installation or repair
- Major builder’s work such as new openings in structural walls
If you’re not sure, just call 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kentish Town
In a comms room, losing the cooling can soon become serious. Designing in a backup unit or reviewing the existing set-up is worth doing before anything goes wrong. Consents in London blocks can take time, which is another reason to plan the job in Kentish Town early.
No two properties are the same, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.
