- Leak check schedules that have slipped
- Commercial systems near the end of their life
The process
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building, and we tidy up before we leave. Around Little Heath, access is usually simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.
- An engineer walks the building with you to understand its layout, its users and its heat sources.
- 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.
- The system is commissioned and you receive the F-gas records, handover notes and manufacturer paperwork.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Little Heath
Installation is only the start. A maintenance contract keeps servicing and leak checks on schedule, with the records kept up to date with the cost agreed up front. Our 24/7 emergency line is there if something goes wrong. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ducted systems and server and comms room cooling, and the jobs we see most are fit-outs and refurbishments that need new air conditioning and systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation.
For a business in or near Little Heath, an air-to-air system can heat and cool, which can replace old heaters in shops and offices.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
Questions from Little Heath
Is Little Heath within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Will air conditioning in Little Heath need planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Historic England lists about 5 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Little Heath. 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 the planning department at Reading council, usually the authority for Little Heath.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your photos and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
What does the operator have to do under the F-gas rules?
The operator and the service technicians share responsibility. The operator needs to arrange leak checks and keep records where the system requires them, and we provide both.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. Each visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Does my building need a TM44 inspection?
The threshold is 12 kW of effective rated output, with inspections at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor does the inspection, and we can carry out the recommended work.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
What we are called out for in Little Heath
A TM44 report, an F-gas audit or an insurer’s question can prompt the call. We carry out the work and make sure the paperwork is in order, so you can show what’s been done.
The things we are asked about most are:
- Missing F-gas records for commercial systems
- Older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer
- Workspaces that overheat on warm days
A bursar or site manager at a school like Birch Copse Primary School will want the install planned around the school calendar, and we work to that.
What your quote should include
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
Cooling for Little Heath businesses
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 21 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 8 schools and colleges and about 15 care, childcare and hospital premises within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Little Heath. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use.
If you look after a church or hall such as St Catherine of Siena, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents.

For landlords and property managers
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we will keep everyone informed.
