Questions from Paddock Wood
Is Paddock Wood within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can I fit air conditioning in Paddock Wood without planning permission?
It depends on the property. A conservation area takes in the middle of Paddock Wood. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that aren’t used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (for Paddock Wood, typically Tunbridge Wells council).
How soon will you get back to me?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
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.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we will tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Commercial air conditioning in Paddock Wood
There’s no single best commercial system. Wall-mounted splits suit small offices and single rooms, cassettes suit open ceilings, ducted units hide away in ceiling voids, and VRF or VRV serves many rooms from shared outdoor units. We explain the options and why we’d choose one over another. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, server and comms room cooling and ducted systems, and common reasons people get in touch are comms rooms without enough cooling and systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation.
Around Paddock Wood, many businesses choose systems that heat as well as cool, useful where old heaters struggle.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Hotels and schools
Schools often need installs during the holidays, with the programme agreed well in advance.
Fixed-price quotes for commercial air conditioning in Paddock Wood
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- How easy the units are to reach
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
A single unit or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the equipment. You’ll have a fixed price before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
Before you get in touch
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or email us.

Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Plan regular servicing with a contract
- Budget for replacing ageing plant
- Call about warning signs right away
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.
Keep filters clean and plant areas clear. Restricted airflow puts strain on the whole system.

What we do, step by step
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Getting to the outside of the property matters more than parking in a place like Paddock Wood.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- You get our recommendation and a fixed price.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
Before we arrive
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
