About our commercial air conditioning in Smithfield
Heating, cooling and fresh air often go together. Most modern systems can heat and cool, and ventilation and MVHR can be designed alongside for a joined-up system. If the problem is missing F-gas records for commercial systems and systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation, we can sort it out.
For a business in Smithfield, the legal side matters too: F-gas leak checks on larger systems, and TM44 inspections where total cooling output is over 12 kW. We keep the F-gas records and flag what’s coming up.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

What affects the cost of commercial air conditioning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- The pipe route between the units
- How easy the units are to reach
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.
Before you get in touch
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
To help us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, photos of the rooms or units, the brand and model of anything already fitted and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Smithfield questions
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Smithfield?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Do you cover Smithfield for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. Smithfield is one of the places we cover. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few photos.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
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 carry out the checks and keep the records.
Can you look after our air conditioning after it’s installed?
Yes, and we tailor the schedule to the system and how hard it works. There’s also a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Carrying out the TM44 inspection itself, which needs an accredited energy assessor
- Plumbing beyond the condensate drainage
- Formal planning decisions, which rest with the council
If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Commercial air conditioning in Smithfield: local notes
There are about 4,705 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 211 hotels and guest houses and about 86 schools and colleges in and around Smithfield, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms. About 32% of homes in the Smithfield area have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and Census 2021 figures found about 97% of households live in flats. 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 your office near Farringdon station has a comms or server room, it needs cooling all year, not just in summer. If you look after a church or hall such as St Bartholomew-the-Less, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents.

System by system
VRF and VRV systems
VRF systems hold more refrigerant than small splits so leak checks and records often apply. We calculate the tCO2e and plan the checks.
Ducted systems
One ducted unit can serve more than one area, depending on the layout.
The process
You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we’ve done. A note on parking and access helps us plan a visit to Smithfield.
- First comes a site survey of the building, its occupancy and the heat it has to deal with.
- The written quote is fixed and lists the plant, where it goes and the order of works.
- 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.
- Finally it’s commissioned and handed over, with the refrigerant records and manuals for your files.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Clear access to the fuse board
Getting a quote
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
