FAQs for Northington
Is Northington in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Northington is part of that. To start, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few photos.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Northington?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Historic England lists about 7 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Northington. 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 the planning department at Basingstoke and Deane council, usually the authority for Northington when it matters.
Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?
TM44 inspections are carried out by accredited energy assessors, which we are not. We prepare systems for inspection and carry out the work the report recommends.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so it’s worth checking. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Each visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
About our commercial air conditioning in Northington
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 are not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. The work covers ducted systems, VRF systems and multi-split systems, and people most often call us about staff complaining about the temperature and F-gas leak checks and records that are overdue.
If you run a village hall or similar building near Northington, heating and cooling that warms up fast suits a space used on and off.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Common problems we fix in Northington
Ageing systems are a common reason for a call. Parts become harder to find and the system can’t keep up so replacement starts to make more sense than repair.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Commercial systems near the end of their life
- Systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation
- Fit-outs and refurbishments that need new air conditioning
Larger commercial systems need F-gas leak checks and, over 12 kW of cooling, TM44 inspections.
Questions to ask before you book
- What’s in the price and what is not
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
How we price commercial air conditioning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The number of rooms, units or zones
Putting several jobs into one visit can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered, and you will get one fixed price.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- The address and the type of property
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
For commercial air conditioning in Northington, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier. Let us know the type of property and what you need, plus some photos if they’re to hand. Enquiries get a reply the same working day.

Looking after it afterwards
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:
- Show staff how to use the controls properly
- Keep outdoor units clear of rubbish and stored goods
- Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
Make a note of when a TM44 inspection will be due if the system is over 12 kW. We can prepare the system and act on the report.
Plan replacements before old systems fail especially where top-up refrigerant is getting harder to buy.
