FAQs for Sandy Down
Is Sandy Down within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is air conditioning in Sandy Down permitted development?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Around 4 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Sandy Down. 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 New Forest council, usually the authority for Sandy Down.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
Over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is needed at least every 5 years. The rules are set out on GOV.UK, and we can help you prepare.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
What warranty do I get?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Commercial air conditioning in Sandy Down, done properly
There’s no single best commercial system. 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. The work covers ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about changes of use that need a new layout and systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection.
In a village like Sandy Down, commercial air conditioning is usually for a pub, a shop, a surgery, a village hall or a rural business. Older buildings may be listed or in a conservation area, so we check the planning side first.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

What to send for a quote

- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The address and the type of property

What we do, step by step
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Sandy Down can be planned properly.
- It starts with a survey on site, looking at the space, the people in it and the equipment.
- A fixed-price quote follows, covering the system type, the layout and the timing.
- We agree a programme that suits the site, including evening, weekend or phased installation.
- Indoor and outdoor units, pipework, condensate and controls are installed and the electrics connected.
- Commissioning, F-gas records and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
Getting a quote
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
