When to call us in Shippon
Heat builds up in commercial spaces from occupants, equipment, lighting and sunshine, and opening windows does not always help. A system sized for the real heat load deals with it.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Installs that must fit around trading hours
- Offices that get too hot in summer
- Changes of use that need a new layout
A bursar or site manager at a school like Larkmead School will want the install planned around the school calendar, and we work to that.
Questions to ask before you book
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
- What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards
About our commercial air conditioning in Shippon
Every commercial job is commercial systems priced after survey. We look at the building, the people in it, the equipment and the hours it’s used, then send a fixed-price quote. That way the system fits the site and the price is clear before work starts. The work covers server and comms room cooling, multi-split systems and VRF systems, and common reasons people get in touch are planning ahead for the HFC phase-down and missing F-gas records for commercial systems.
If you run a village hall or similar building near Shippon, heating and cooling that warms up fast suits a space used on and off.
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 each visit is recorded.

Commercial air conditioning around Shippon
There are about 25 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 9 care homes, nurseries and hospitals in and around Shippon, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Restaurants, hotels, schools and care settings each need cooling designed for their hours and heat loads.
Churches and halls such as Church of St Mary Magdalene are often used a few hours at a time, which suits a system that heats or cools a space quickly, once consents are in place.

Common questions in Shippon
Can I fit air conditioning in Shippon without planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Historic England lists about 13 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Shippon. 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 Vale of White Horse council, normally the authority for Shippon.
Will you come out to Shippon?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
For systems at or above 5 tCO2e, the operator must have leak checks carried out and keep records. The intervals are at least yearly from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and 6-monthly from 50 to under 500 tCO2e, and we can handle both.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
What warranty do I get?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
What types of commercial air conditioning do you install?
Wall-mounted, multi-split, ducted, cassette and VRF systems from the major manufacturers. We explain the options after a site survey.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
What we do, step by step
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 the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours. If a lane or gateway near Shippon is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- 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.
