- Planning ahead for the HFC phase-down
- Installs that must fit around trading hours

Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Prestwood
The right system depends on the building. 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. If you’re dealing with TM44 recommendations that need acting on and commercial systems near the end of their life, we can sort it out.
Around Prestwood, commercial jobs are typically a shop, surgery, pub, office or workshop. Many need just one to four indoor units, sized from a site survey.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Different systems, different jobs
Ducted systems
A single ducted unit can feed several grilles, depending on the layout.
VRF and VRV systems
VRF systems hold more refrigerant than small splits, so F-gas leak checks and records are more likely to apply. We calculate the tCO2e and plan the checks.

FAQs for Prestwood
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Prestwood?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The half-mile around the middle of Prestwood holds about 15 listed buildings and structures. 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 Buckinghamshire council, normally the authority for Prestwood when it matters.
Will you come out to Prestwood?
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.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone, and we are happy to show ours.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. 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.
When will I hear back?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
