FAQs for Meopham
Can I fit air conditioning in Meopham without planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central Meopham is a short walk from the Hook Green, Meopham Conservation Area. An air-to-air system used for heating as well as cooling can be permitted development on a house if it meets the conditions, but a cooling-only unit is not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with Gravesham council, which is normally the planning authority for Meopham.
Will you come out to Meopham?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
What kind of air conditioning can you install in a business?
Wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF or VRV systems. The right one depends on the building and how it’s used.
What are the F-gas responsibilities for commercial air conditioning?
For systems at or above 5 tCO2e, the operator must have leak checks carried out and keep records. Checks are at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e, and we can handle both.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years and we explain the terms for your brand on the quote.
Commercial air conditioning in Meopham
Commercial systems are commercial systems priced after survey. The survey covers the space, its occupancy, its heat sources and its opening hours, and a fixed-price quote follows. That way the system fits the site and the price is clear before work starts. Typical jobs include installs that must fit around trading hours and IT rooms that need resilient cooling, on multi-split systems, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems.
Businesses near Meopham often have room for outdoor units on the ground at the back, which keeps them out of sight and easy to service.
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.

Safe owner checks
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. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
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.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone, and we clear up before we go. Seeing the property in pictures first helps us plan the trip to Meopham.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- We install around your hours, phased where necessary.
- We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
Ask for a quote
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Commercial air conditioning in Meopham: local notes
There are about 12 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 schools and colleges within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Meopham, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use.
For premises near Meopham station, we plan plant positions and working hours with the landlord or managing agent first, where there is one. If you look after a church or hall such as Parish Church of St John the Baptist, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents.

Different systems, different jobs
Offices
Meeting rooms and open-plan areas often need separate control, which VRF and multi-split systems can provide.
Server and comms rooms
Adding a second unit gives resilience and we can explain how they would work together.
Why deal with it now?
R410A systems are still legal to repair, though supply of the gas is tightening. It’s better to replace on your terms than after a breakdown. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but your price depends on the job in front of us. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749 or send an email, and we will explain what it covers.
