Questions from Pimlico
Can I fit air conditioning in Pimlico without planning permission?
It depends on the property. Historic England lists about 5 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Pimlico. 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 is not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with Three Rivers council, which is typically the planning authority for Pimlico.
Do you cover Pimlico for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Pimlico is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
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 yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. 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.
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.

Every commercial job is commercial systems priced after survey. We look at the building, the people in it, the equipment and the hours it’s used, and a fixed-price quote follows. So you know exactly what you’re getting and what it costs. Common call-outs are for systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation and staff complaining about the temperature, across server and comms room cooling, multi-split systems and ducted systems.

How the visit works
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Pimlico.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- You get our recommendation and a fixed price.
- We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
- The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Advice
Safe owner checks
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: 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 email us.
Do you need commercial air conditioning in Pimlico?
Offices and shops often gain heat from people, lighting, computers and sun through the windows and windows alone cannot always shift it. Air conditioning sized to the actual heat gain keeps the space comfortable.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Leak check schedules that have slipped
- R410A systems getting dearer to top up
- Older systems that cannot keep up
If you look after a school such as Bedmond Academy, classroom, office and IT room cooling is typically installed in the holidays.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- What paperwork you will receive afterwards
