Commercial air conditioning in Old Oak Common, done properly
Server rooms and comms rooms need cooling that keeps going. The design accounts for the equipment’s heat and can include a second unit as backup, so a single fault does not leave the room without cooling. If the problem is installs that must fit around trading hours and offices that get too hot in summer, we can help.
In a London area like Old Oak Common, commercial air conditioning goes into offices, shops, restaurants and server rooms, often in shared buildings. That means planning noise, outdoor unit positions and access with the landlord or managing agent, and installs are often done out of hours.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

How the visit works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone. Managed buildings in London often need contractors booked in, and we can deal with the agent for a job in Old Oak Common.

- The written quote is fixed and lists the plant, where it goes and the order of works.
- We agree a programme that suits the site, including evening, weekend or phased installation.
- Indoor and outdoor units, pipework, condensate and controls are installed and the electrics connected.
- We commission the system, record the refrigerant details and hand over the controls and documents.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Advice
Different systems, different jobs
Hotels and schools
If the system is over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is required at least every 5 years and we can get the system ready and carry out the work it recommends.
Ceiling cassettes
Only the face of the cassette is visible, which keeps the look of the ceiling tidy.
Aftercare tips
Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep a log for each system
- Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
- Report noises, leaks and faults early
Equipment warranties come from the manufacturer. We go through the manufacturer’s conditions with you and you’ll know what they ask for.
Train staff to use the controls sensibly. Units heating and cooling the same space at once is a common problem and correct settings avoid it.

Old Oak Common: your questions answered
Can you do commercial air conditioning in Old Oak Common?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Old Oak Common is part of that. Just ring us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few details.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Old Oak Common?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The centre of Old Oak Common is in 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 the planning department at Brent council, typically the authority for Old Oak Common when it matters.
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.
Does my building need a TM44 inspection?
If the air conditioning has an effective rated output over 12 kW, an inspection is required at least every 5 years. The rules are set out on GOV.UK, and we can help you prepare.
Which accreditations do you hold?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
