Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Silvertown
Commercial systems are commercial systems priced after survey. The survey covers the space, its occupancy, its heat sources and its opening hours, and a fixed-price quote follows. So you know exactly what you are getting and what it costs. Typical jobs include changes of use that need a new layout and systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection, on wall-mounted split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems.
Space for outdoor units is tight in much of London, Silvertown included, so condensers often go on roofs, in light wells or in plant rooms. VRF systems can serve many indoor units from a small number of outdoor units.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Business air conditioning in Silvertown
Food Standards Agency data counts about 269 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 19 hotels and guest houses and about 53 schools and colleges within about 1.5 miles of central Silvertown. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms. VOA council tax data show about 84% of homes in the Silvertown area were built in 2000 or later, and about 90% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). In mixed streets, commercial outdoor units have to be placed and sized with the homes nearby in mind. London commercial jobs usually involve a landlord or managing agent, and plant space is often tight.
If you look after a church or hall such as St Barnabas' Church, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents. For a school like Britannia Village Primary School, air conditioning work is best done out of term.

When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Carrying out the TM44 inspection itself, which needs an accredited energy assessor
- Fire risk assessments
- Planning permission or landlord consent on your behalf
If you are not sure, just phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we will give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover
- VRF systems

How it works
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, and that takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. Let us know who controls access to the building in Silvertown, as that saves time on the day.
- We survey the site and talk through how each area is used.
- You get our recommendation and a fixed price.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
- Commissioning and handover follow, with the F-gas records and manufacturer paperwork.
How to prepare
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Tell us about parking and loading

FAQs for Silvertown
Will air conditioning in Silvertown need planning permission?
It depends on the property. Around 2 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Silvertown. 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 Newham council, usually the authority for Silvertown.
Can you do commercial air conditioning in Silvertown?
Yes. Silvertown is one of the places we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Will you make a mess?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
Do you offer commercial maintenance contracts?
Yes. A contract keeps the system serviced and any required leak checks on schedule and each visit is recorded.
Do you install in the evenings or at weekends?
Yes. We fit the installation around when the building is in use and phase it where necessary.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Safe owner checks
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are typically the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
What a customer said
“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.”
