Commercial air conditioning across Merton

How the visit works

We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. The more we can see beforehand, the smoother the visit to Merton will be.

  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. We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
  4. The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
  5. We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
  • Tell us about parking and loading

How to get a quote

Quotes do not take long. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

Commercial air conditioning in Merton

Businesses can’t always stop for an installation. We plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs, so the building keeps running. The timing is set out with your quote. If the problem is systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection and missing F-gas records for commercial systems, we can help.

In a London area like Merton, commercial air conditioning goes into offices, shops, restaurants and server rooms, often in shared buildings. So landlord consent, plant positions and noise all need agreeing first, and the work is usually planned around trading hours.

Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer, so keep it safe.

Pricing commercial air conditioning in Merton

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
  • How easy the units are to reach
  • How many units are involved

Typical ranges are on our prices page, but your price depends on the job in front of us. For a fixed-price quote, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email, and we will talk you through it.

Before you get in touch

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • Any previous service or F-Gas records
  • A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
  • The remote or wall controller showing any error

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.

FAQs for Merton

Will air conditioning in Merton need planning permission?

It depends on the property. There’s a conservation area, the Wandle Valley Conservation Area, close to central Merton. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that are not used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with Merton council, which is normally the planning authority for Merton.

Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Merton?

Usually, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.

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.

Which commercial systems do you fit?

We install wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF systems. The right one depends on the building and how it’s used.

Can I do the refrigerant work myself?

Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

When is a TM44 inspection required?

Where the air conditioning is over 12 kW, an inspection is needed at least every 5 years. It’s carried out by an accredited energy assessor and we can help before and after.

How does the warranty work?

It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.

Looking after it afterwards

Systems last better with the right care. We suggest:

  • Diary TM44 inspections in advance
  • Do not wait for small faults to become breakdowns
  • Budget for replacing ageing plant

If anything does not feel right after the install, ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we’ll look into it. Our 24/7 emergency line covers breakdowns.

Train staff to use the controls sensibly. Systems fighting each other, or set to extremes, waste effort, and we can help set them up.

Cooling for Merton businesses

Food Standards Agency records list about 352 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 5 hotels and guest houses and about 39 schools and colleges in and around Merton, 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. About 42% of homes in the Merton area were built before 1919, according to VOA council tax data, and about 49% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). In mixed streets, commercial outdoor units have to be placed and sized with the homes nearby in mind. For London businesses, plant position, noise and access are planned with the building first.

If you look after a church or hall such as St John The Divine, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents. For a school like Merton Abbey Primary School, air conditioning work is best done out of term.

Let and managed properties

Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.

What a customer said

“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.”
