How it works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours. For a place like Maypole, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- 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.
- Installation is scheduled to fit the business, with out-of-hours and phased work where necessary.
- The system goes in, from units and pipework to drainage, wiring and controls.
- We commission the system, record the refrigerant details and hand over the controls and documents.

Commercial air conditioning in Maypole
Buildings whose air conditioning totals more than 12 kW need a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. The inspection is carried out by an accredited energy assessor; we’re not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. Typical jobs include leak check schedules that have slipped and changes of use that need a new layout, across ceiling cassettes, ducted systems and wall-mounted split systems.
If you run a village hall or similar building near Maypole, heating and cooling that warms up fast suits a space used on and off.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Why it’s worth doing now in Maypole
For most systems from 5 tCO2e upwards, leak checks and records are required by law. Falling behind leaves the operator without the evidence the rules expect and a maintenance contract keeps them on track. Booking before summer means the work in Maypole is done before the hot weather.
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.
Why book with us
- Diagnosis first, then a fixed price
- F-Gas certified company
- Electrical work covered by our NICEIC approval
- One number for homes and businesses across London and the South East

Aftercare tips
Looking after it is simple, and it helps at the next service:
- Track when the next TM44 inspection is due
- Avoid units heating and cooling the same space
- Leave space around outdoor units
Once the system is commissioned, we hand over the records, the controls and the manufacturer documents. Keep them together for future servicing and inspections.
Keep records of every service, leak check and repair. For systems at or over 5 tCO2e, they’re required.
Let and managed properties
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the records to whoever needs them.
Cooling for Maypole businesses
At about 3 miles from the coast, Maypole is close enough for sea air to matter. Rooftop and wall-mounted plant near the sea needs protecting from salt air, through position, coil coatings where available and regular maintenance. Food Standards Agency data counts about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 6 care homes, nurseries and hospitals within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Maypole. Restaurants, hotels, schools and care settings each need cooling designed for their hours and heat loads.
For a church or hall like Church of the Holy Cross, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first. For a school like Hoath Primary School, air conditioning work is best done out of term.

Common questions in Maypole
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Maypole?
It can, as Maypole is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Maypole?
It depends on the property. Central Maypole sits inside the Ford, Maypole and Oldtree Conservation Area. 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 Canterbury City council, usually the authority for Maypole.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always look before we price, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
