Commercial air conditioning in North Woolwich, done properly
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. We’re often asked to deal with workspaces that overheat on warm days and fit-outs and refurbishments that need new air conditioning, across ducted systems, server and comms room cooling and multi-split systems.
London buildings in North Woolwich can have little space for outdoor plant, so roofs, light wells and basements are common positions. VRF systems keep outdoor plant down by serving many rooms from few outdoor units, which helps in dense areas.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

The process
Every visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, test what we have done and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone. Some blocks in North Woolwich need contractor details in advance, so tell us what your building needs.
- 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 needed.
- On site, the team mounts the plant, runs and proves the pipework, and wires the controls.
- We commission the system, record the refrigerant details and hand over the controls and documents.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a price
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

FAQs for North Woolwich
Can I fit air conditioning in North Woolwich without planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Historic England lists about 5 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of North Woolwich. 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 Newham council, which is usually the planning authority for North Woolwich when it matters.
Do you cover North Woolwich for commercial air conditioning?
We do: North Woolwich falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, the approach is the same: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Can you look after our air conditioning after it’s installed?
Yes. A contract keeps the system serviced and any required leak checks on schedule, with records kept for each visit.
How much does commercial air conditioning cost?
Every commercial job is priced after a site survey. The building, the heat load, the system type and the programme all affect the cost, and you get a fixed-price quote before work starts.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Cooling for North Woolwich businesses
Food Standards Agency records list about 185 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 13 hotels and guest houses and about 51 schools and colleges within about 1.5 miles of central North Woolwich. Restaurants, hotels, schools and care settings each need cooling designed for their hours and heat loads. VOA council tax data show about 40% of homes in North Woolwich and the neighbourhoods around it were built in 2000 or later, and about 78% 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.
Before any plant goes outside a building like St John's Church, its trustees may need planning or heritage advice, and we work with whoever gives it. Healthcare premises near British Hospital for Mothers and Babies need air conditioning that’s easy to clean and maintained on a schedule.

Before you call an engineer
Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are typically the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
What air conditioning won’t do
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what commercial air conditioning will not do:
- Structural alterations to the building
- Boiler installation or repair
- Fire safety design or fire risk assessments
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Ducted systems

Why deal with it now?
F-gas leak checks and records are legal duties for most systems at or above 5 tCO2e. Missing checks leaves gaps in the records, and it’s simpler to keep on schedule with a contract. Consents in London blocks can take time, which is another reason to plan the job in North Woolwich early.
Putting several jobs into one visit often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.
