Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Leave space around outdoor units
- Call about warning signs straight away
- Involve us at the planning stage of a refurbishment
Once the system is commissioned, we hand over the records, the controls and the manufacturer documents. They’ll be needed for servicing, leak checks and TM44 inspections.
Planned maintenance is the best way to keep a commercial system healthy. We agree the visits and the price with your quote.
Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Roedean
Buildings whose air conditioning totals more than 12 kW need a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. The inspection is carried out by an accredited energy assessor; we’re not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. Typical jobs include missing F-gas records for commercial systems and systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection, on ceiling cassettes, multi-split systems and wall-mounted split systems.
Around Roedean, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, shops, halls, surgeries and farm or rural businesses. Older buildings may be listed or in a conservation area, so we check the planning side first.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Roedean questions
Will you come out to Roedean?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is Roedean in your area for commercial air conditioning?
We do: Roedean falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. Ask to see proof before you book anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
Who is responsible for 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.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some brands make regular servicing a condition so it’s worth keeping the service records.
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
Not necessarily. On a house, air-to-water heat pumps and, since 2025, air-to-air systems that heat as well as cool can be permitted development if they meet the conditions. Cooling-only units, listed buildings, flats and road-facing spots in conservation areas are where it normally comes up, and we tell you at the survey. This is general information, not legal advice.
Does my building need a TM44 inspection?
The threshold is 12 kW of effective rated output, with inspections at least every 5 years. The inspection is done by an accredited assessor, and we do the follow-up work.
Commercial air conditioning in Roedean: local notes
Roedean lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Salt air shortens the life of unprotected outdoor coils, so coastal commercial systems need the right kit and regular servicing. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 70 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 26 schools and colleges and about 20 care, childcare and hospital premises within about 1.5 miles of central Roedean. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms. Census 2021 figures found about 70% of households live in flats. In mixed streets, commercial outdoor units have to be placed and sized with the homes nearby in mind.
If you look after a school such as St Mark's CofE Primary School, classroom, office and IT room cooling is typically installed in the holidays.
Roedean is about 2 miles east of Carlton Hill, in Brighton and Hove. Whatever kind of property you have in Roedean, we can help with commercial air conditioning. We reply to enquiries the same working day, and there’s a 24/7 emergency line. Our list for Brighton and Hove has 30 entries, and Roedean is one.
The closest recent job we can point to from Roedean was on New Road, Brighton (BN1), about 2 miles north-west: installing individual wall-mounted Panasonic units in all 22 guest rooms, plus two cassette units in the restaurant and a dedicated unit for the server room at basement level.
From Peel Road, Cliff Road and Henley Road to the smaller roads in between, nowhere is left out. Our working area takes in BN2, every street of it.

Green spaces nearby include Whitehawk Hill and Newmarket Hill.
Rented and managed buildings
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Do you need commercial air conditioning in Roedean?
The GB phase-down is reducing HFC supply, so refrigerants like R410A are getting scarcer and dearer for top-ups. Repairs on existing R410A systems remain legal, but it’s a factor when planning a replacement.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Missing F-gas records for commercial systems
- Planning ahead for the HFC phase-down
- Ageing air conditioning that keeps breaking down
For a surgery or clinic in the French Convalescent Home area, a planned maintenance contract keeps the system clean and its records up to date.
What your quote should include
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- Whether extra work needs your approval first
How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. The visit itself takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. We plan the trip to Roedean around you.
- We survey the site and talk through how each area is used.
- We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit

“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.”
