What commercial work looks like in Long Wittenham
The last census (2021) found about 35% of households in terraced houses. Where shops and offices sit below or beside homes, outdoor plant position and noise need extra care.
If you look after a church or hall such as Church of St Mary, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents. Clinics, dental practices and pharmacies around Abingdon Community Hospital (about 4.4 miles north-west) typically want quiet indoor units with filters that are simple to keep clean.

Common questions in Long Wittenham
Do you cover Long Wittenham for commercial air conditioning?
We do: Long Wittenham falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Long Wittenham?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The Long Wittenham Conservation Area is close to the centre of Long Wittenham. 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 the local planning authority (for Long Wittenham, usually South Oxfordshire council).
Do you protect the property while you work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
What types of commercial air conditioning do you install?
Splits, multi-splits, cassettes, ducted units and VRF from the major manufacturers. We explain the options after a site survey.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Do you offer commercial maintenance contracts?
Yes, with visits planned around the site. There’s also a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns.
What are the F-gas responsibilities for commercial air conditioning?
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.
What affects the cost of commercial air conditioning
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- What electrical work the job needs
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- The condition of any existing system
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- The address and the type of property
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
For a fixed-price quote, call 07833 053749 or use the quote form with the address and a few details about the rooms or units involved. A few photos make it quicker. You will hear back from us the same working day.
For landlords and property managers
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the paperwork can go to both.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.

Aftercare tips
Systems last better with the right care. We suggest:
- Plan replacements before old systems fail
- Keep outdoor units clear of rubbish and stored goods
- Show staff how to use the controls properly
Handover includes a walk-through of the controls so staff can set it up properly. Getting the settings right helps the system perform.
Keep records of every service, leak check and repair. For systems at or over 5 tCO2e, they’re required.
The process
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours, and we tidy up before we leave. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Long Wittenham.

“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.”
