Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Old Shoreham
The right system depends on the building. Splits for small rooms, cassettes for open-plan ceilings, ducted for a hidden finish and VRF or VRV for many zones on one system. We explain the options and why we’d choose one over another. The work covers ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and server and comms room cooling, and common reasons people get in touch are changes of use that need a new layout and R410A systems getting dearer to top up.
Around Old Shoreham, there’s normally space for outdoor plant away from the road.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Business air conditioning in Old Shoreham
The coast is only about 1 mile from Old Shoreham. Salt air shortens the life of unprotected outdoor coils, so coastal commercial systems need the right kit and regular servicing. Food Standards Agency records list about 45 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 6 schools and colleges and about 22 care, childcare and hospital premises within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Old Shoreham. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms. The Old Shoreham Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Old Shoreham, within about a third of a mile. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Old Shoreham and it takes in 2 conservation areas. Historic England lists about 14 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Old Shoreham, including Church of St Nicolas (grade I). If your property is listed or sits inside a conservation area, expect us to raise planning at the survey and to speak to Adur council, normally the planning authority here where it’s needed.
For a surgery or clinic in the Southlands Hospital area, a planned maintenance contract keeps the system clean and its records up to date. For a church or hall like St Nicolas' Church, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first.
Old Shoreham is about 1 mile west of Shoreham-by-Sea, in West Sussex. Anywhere in BN43, we can help with commercial air conditioning. Count every place we list in West Sussex and you reach 371, with Old Shoreham on the list.
Not far from Old Shoreham, a recent job of ours was on Middle Street, Shoreham-by-Sea (BN43), about 1 mile east: installing a marine-grade Mitsubishi Electric wall-mounted unit in the open-plan living area.
All of BN43 is within our area, from busy streets to back roads. Close to Old Shoreham, our area also takes in Shoreham-by-Sea (1 mile east), Adur (1 mile north), Kingston by Sea (2 miles east), Southwick (2 miles east) and Castle Town (3 miles north). Within a short drive, we also cover Worthing (5 miles west), Haywards Heath (14 miles north-east), Burgess Hill (11 miles north-east) and Littlehampton (11 miles west).
What’s near Old Shoreham
We fit and service air conditioning in homes and premises around The Sir Robert Woodard Academy and The Amsterdam pub. The nearest railway station is Shoreham-By-Sea station, about 0.7 miles east. Well-known places in the area include Southlands Hospital (1.4 miles east) and Old Castle (4.6 miles west). The countryside around Old Shoreham includes Lancing Ring and Adur Estuary RSPB Reserve.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

TM44 inspections are done by accredited energy assessors. We’re not assessors, but we prepare the system and carry out the improvements the report recommends.

Fixed-price quotes for commercial air conditioning in Old Shoreham
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Before you get in touch
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
What we do, step by step
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. For a village like Old Shoreham, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We visit the site to look at the building, how it’s used and what the system needs to do.
- You get a fixed-price quote with the equipment, the layout and the programme set out.
- 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.
- The system is commissioned and you receive the F-gas records, handover notes and manufacturer paperwork.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit

Common questions in Old Shoreham
Is Old Shoreham within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Old Shoreham?
It can. Old Shoreham is within about 1 mile of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
How are commercial air conditioning installs priced?
Every commercial job is priced after a site survey. The cost depends on the size of the space, the system and how the work is phased, and you get a fixed-price quote before work starts.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
The duties depend on how much refrigerant the system holds. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks and records with automatic leak detection at 500 tCO2e and above.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
A customer’s words
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
