Shepherd's Green: your questions answered
Can you do commercial air conditioning in Shepherd's Green?
Yes, Shepherd's Green is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Is Shepherd's Green within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Does my building need a TM44 inspection?
Over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is needed at least every 5 years. The rules are set out on GOV.UK and we will help with the system side.
Are you TM44 assessors?
We’re not accredited energy assessors, so we don’t inspect. We help before and after, preparing the system and acting on the report.
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
That depends on what’s being fitted and where. In England, an air source heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets set conditions, including the MCS 020(a) noise check, but a cooling-only unit is not covered, so check with the council. Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas have tighter rules. This is general information, not legal advice.
Which commercial systems do you fit?
Wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF or VRV systems. The right one depends on the building and how it’s used.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
Commercial air conditioning in Shepherd's Green, done properly
Air conditioning systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW must have a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. The inspection is carried out by an accredited energy assessor. We do not carry out the inspection itself, but we prepare the system and do the work it recommends. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ducted systems and VRF systems, and common reasons people get in touch are staff complaining about the temperature and commercial systems near the end of their life.
Around Shepherd's Green, 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.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

Commercial air conditioning in Shepherd's Green: local notes
The centre of Shepherd's Green lies within the Shepherd's Green Conservation Area. 3 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Shepherd's Green. The Little White Cottage, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 6 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Shepherd's Green’s centre. None of this rules air conditioning out. It just means the planning position is checked before anyone suggests a spot for the outdoor unit. At about 38 miles from central London, Shepherd's Green sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East.
For a church or hall like Church of St Nicholas, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first. If you run a surgery, clinic or pharmacy in the area around Battle Hospital, about 6 miles south, cleanable, quiet units and regular maintenance matter.

Keeping the system healthy
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:
- Plan regular servicing with a contract
- Leave space around outdoor units
- Avoid units heating and cooling the same space
Handover includes a walk-through of the controls so staff can set it up properly. Simple settings make a real difference to comfort and running.
Plan replacements before old systems fail, particularly where they use R410A.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Shepherd's Green.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- Installation goes ahead around the business.
- We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
