Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in New Eltham
Once a system is in, it needs looking after. A maintenance contract keeps servicing and leak checks on schedule, with the records kept up to date, at a price fixed with your quote. Our 24/7 emergency line is there if something goes wrong. Common call-outs are for TM44 recommendations that need acting on and ageing air conditioning that keeps breaking down, across server and comms room cooling, VRF systems and ceiling cassettes.
In New Eltham, as anywhere in England, larger systems need F-gas leak checks, and over 12 kW of cooling a TM44 inspection is required. We keep the F-gas records and flag what’s coming up.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Rented and managed buildings
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we’ll keep everyone informed.
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Before you call an engineer
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
After we have gone
After the visit, a few habits help:
- Plan replacements before old systems fail
- Tell us early about fit-outs or changes of use
- Plan regular servicing with a contract
Should anything seem off after handover, ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll come back to it. Our 24/7 emergency line covers breakdowns.
Make sure filters are maintained and outdoor units have space. Blocked filters and obstructed outdoor units make the system work harder.

Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use.

New Eltham questions
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in New Eltham?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder typically have a say. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Can I fit air conditioning in New Eltham without planning permission?
It depends on the property. Central New Eltham sits inside a conservation area. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to Greenwich council, which is usually the planning authority for New Eltham when it matters.
How quickly will you reply?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you work in New Eltham?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of the South East, New Eltham included.
Can you work around our opening hours?
Yes, timing is agreed to suit you. Shops, offices, restaurants and schools all have different needs, and we plan for them.
Which commercial systems do you fit?
Everything from wall-mounted units for single rooms to VRF or VRV systems serving whole buildings. Cassettes and ducted units are common choices for open-plan and visible spaces.
