Radfield: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Radfield?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We are 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 Radfield without planning permission?
It depends on the property. The half-mile around the middle of Radfield holds about 8 listed buildings and structures. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the planning department at Swale council, typically the authority for Radfield.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
Where the air conditioning is over 12 kW, an inspection is needed at least every 5 years. It’s carried out by an accredited energy assessor and we can help before and after.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump 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 manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we will explain them and stick to the interval they set.

Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

Signs you need commercial air conditioning in Radfield
A fit-out, refurbishment or change of use often means rethinking the air conditioning. More people, new walls or extra equipment alter what the system has to cope with and the system needs to match the new layout.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Ageing air conditioning that keeps breaking down
- Staff complaining about the temperature
- Work raised by a TM44 inspection
Before any plant goes outside a building like Church of St Lawrence, its trustees may need planning or heritage advice, and we work with whoever gives it.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
Looking after your system
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep F-gas records together and up to date
- Track when the next TM44 inspection is due
- Avoid units heating and cooling the same space
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.
Make sure filters are maintained and outdoor units have space. Blocked filters and obstructed outdoor units make the system work harder.

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
