What happens on the day
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. On site, the work takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Old Heathfield.
- It starts with a survey on site, looking at the space, the people in it and the equipment.
- A fixed-price quote follows, covering the system type, the layout and the timing.
- The work is planned around your opening hours, with out-of-hours or phased work where it helps.
- We fit the units, run and test the pipework, connect the condensate and wire in the controls.
- Commissioning, F-gas records and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Before we arrive
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Advice
Commercial air conditioning in Old Heathfield, done properly
Commercial air conditioning is a big part of what we do, for businesses in Old Heathfield and the rest of East Sussex. That includes offices, shops, restaurants, hotels, schools and server rooms, and each one gets a system chosen for how the space is used. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, multi-split systems and VRF systems, and the jobs we see most are TM44 recommendations that need acting on and commercial systems near the end of their life.
Around Old Heathfield, there’s typically space for outdoor plant away from the road, out of sight and away from neighbours.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.

FAQs for Old Heathfield
Will air conditioning in Old Heathfield need planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The centre of Old Heathfield is in the Old Heathfield and Cade Street 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 isn’t covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with Wealden council, which is typically the planning authority for Old Heathfield.
Is Old Heathfield in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. Old Heathfield is one of the places we cover. Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few details.
What kind of air conditioning can you install in a business?
Wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF or VRV systems. We recommend the type that suits your space.
Can you work around our opening hours?
Yes, we plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs to keep disruption down. The programme is agreed with your quote.
Do you offer commercial maintenance contracts?
We do. A contract keeps the system serviced and any required leak checks on schedule and each visit is recorded.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
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.
Let and managed properties
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 can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork, and we will keep everyone informed.
