Commercial air conditioning in Setley, Hampshire
Commercial air conditioning in and around Setley, from a site survey or diagnosis to sign-off with the price fixed before work begins.

Commercial air conditioning in Setley, done properly
Server rooms and comms rooms need cooling that keeps going. The design accounts for the equipment’s heat and can include a second unit as backup so one failure does not take everything down. If the problem is workspaces that overheat on warm days and comms rooms without enough cooling, we can sort it out.
Around Setley, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, shops, halls, surgeries and farm or rural businesses. Older buildings may be listed, so planning comes first.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

The process
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. Visits to Setley are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- Installation goes ahead around the business.
- The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need

Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Setley
Can you do commercial air conditioning in Setley?
Yes, Setley is within the area we cover. Just ring us on 07833 053749 or send an email with a few details.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Setley?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The half-mile around the middle of Setley holds about 6 listed buildings and structures. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones can’t, 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 Setley.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
How soon will you get back to me?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
How does the warranty work?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance for businesses?
Yes, with visits planned around the site. There’s also a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns.
