Common problems we fix in Priddy's Hard
Older systems running on R410A face rising costs for top-ups as the GB HFC phase-down tightens supply. Repairs on existing R410A systems remain legal though it’s worth bearing in mind when planning ahead.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- Changes of use that need a new layout
- Buildings that can’t close for the work
- Offices that get too hot in summer
If you look after a church or hall such as Church of St Mary, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents.

Common questions in Priddy's Hard
Can I fit air conditioning in Priddy's Hard without planning permission?
It depends on the property. Central Priddy's Hard sits inside the Priddy's Hard 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 Gosport council, usually the authority for Priddy's Hard when it matters.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Priddy's Hard?
It can. Priddy's Hard 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.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
How much time does a commercial air con install need?
Expect it to take anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. The scale and programme decide most of it, and we set out the timing with your quote.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that cannot wait. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
What kind of air conditioning can you install in a business?
Wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF or VRV systems. We recommend the type that suits your space.

Why deal with it now?
An older system on R410A can be kept running, but top-up refrigerant is getting scarcer and dearer. It’s better to replace on your terms than after a breakdown. Dealing with it now is normally simpler than a breakdown later.
The cost depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, the access and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Priddy's Hard so we arrive with what’s needed.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.

Advice
After we have gone
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Show staff how to use the controls properly
- Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
- Tell us early about fit-outs or changes of use
We show your team how to use the controls, so the system is run the way it was designed. Simple settings make a real difference to comfort and running.
Keep filters clean and plant areas clear. Blocked filters and obstructed outdoor units make the system work harder.
From one of our customers
“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.”
