Commercial air conditioning in Loose

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the system is mostly common sense. A few tips:

  • Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
  • Keep a log for each system
  • Plan the air conditioning alongside the fit-out

If anything does not feel right after the install, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will come back to it. Our 24/7 emergency line covers breakdowns.

Replace ageing systems on your own timetable especially where top-up refrigerant is getting harder to buy.

About our commercial air conditioning in Loose

Server rooms and comms rooms need cooling that keeps going. The design accounts for the equipment’s heat and can include a second unit as backup, so a single fault does not leave the room without cooling. Typical jobs include comms rooms without enough cooling and planning ahead for the HFC phase-down, on VRF systems, server and comms room cooling and ceiling cassettes.

For a business near Loose, outdoor units typically have room at the back of the building.

Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us

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. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

What happens on the day

We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, the work takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. For a place like Loose, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
  2. We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
  3. The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
  4. We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
  5. We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
  • Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
  • Keep pets and children away from the work area

Getting a quote

Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.

Advice

What commercial work looks like in Loose

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 13 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 11 schools and colleges and about 17 care homes, nurseries and hospitals in and around Loose, up to about a mile and a half out. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use. The Loose Valley Conservation Area is within about a third of a mile of the centre of Loose. There are 3 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Loose. About 44 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Loose, Church of All Saints (grade II*) among them. If your property is listed or sits inside a conservation area, expect us to raise planning at the survey and to speak to the planning team at Maidstone council, which normally handles Loose where it’s needed.

Before any plant goes outside a building like Church of All Saints, its trustees may need planning or heritage advice, and we work with whoever gives it. If you look after a school such as Loose Primary School, classroom, office and IT room cooling is normally installed in the holidays.

Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Loose

Is Loose in your area for commercial air conditioning?

Yes. Loose is one of the places we cover. Just give us a ring on 07833 053749 with a few details.

Do you cover smaller places like Loose?

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.

When is a TM44 inspection required?

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 work on all makes?

Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.

Will I need planning permission?

Not necessarily. Permitted development can cover a heat pump on a house, including an air-to-air system that heats as well as cools since 2025, provided the conditions are met. Permission is more likely to come up for cooling-only units, listed buildings, flats and road-facing positions in conservation areas, and we tell you at the survey. This is general information, not legal advice.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes, 24/7. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.

Do you carry out TM44 inspections?

No, the inspection needs an accredited energy assessor. We can prepare for the inspection and put right what it finds.

Rented and managed buildings

Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.

From one of our customers

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
