Commercial air conditioning in Somerley

Cooling for Somerley businesses

The coast is only about 2 miles from Somerley. Salt air shortens the life of unprotected outdoor coils, so coastal commercial systems need the right kit and regular servicing. Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 care, childcare and hospital premises within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Somerley. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms.

For a surgery or clinic in the St Richard's Hospital area, a planned maintenance contract keeps the system clean and its records up to date. For a school like Birdham CE Primary School, air conditioning work is best done out of term.

Somerley is about 4 miles north-west of Selsey, in West Sussex. If you need commercial air conditioning in Somerley, please ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier for a fixed-price quote.

Not far from Somerley, a recent job of ours was on East Street, Chichester (PO19), about 5 miles north-east: installing a Daikin wall-mounted unit in the dining area and a second unit serving the kitchen pass area.

We work across PO20 and the roads nearby. From Bell Lane and Hundredsteddle Lane to the smaller roads in between, nowhere is left out. Close by, we work in Almodington (1 mile south-east), Birdham (1 mile north-east), Shipton Green (1 mile north-west), Earnley (1 mile south) and East Wittering (2 miles south-west). We also work in nearby towns such as Bognor Regis (7 miles east), Chichester (5 miles north-east), Selsey (4 miles south-east) and Littlehampton (14 miles east).

About our commercial air conditioning in Somerley

Installation is only the start. A maintenance contract keeps servicing and leak checks on schedule, with the records kept up to date, at a price fixed with your quote. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns. If the problem is F-gas leak checks and records that are overdue and R410A systems getting dearer to top up, we can sort it out.

Around Somerley, there’s normally space for outdoor plant away from the road.

Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

When it’s something else

To be straight with you, some problems need a different answer:

  • Planning permission or landlord consent on your behalf
  • Issuing TM44 reports
  • Plumbing beyond the condensate drainage

If you’re not sure, just ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Server and comms room cooling
  • VRF systems
  • Ducted systems
  • Ceiling cassettes
  • Wall-mounted split systems
  • Multi-split systems

What affects the quote in Somerley

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:

  • What electrical work the job needs
  • What state the existing equipment is in
  • How many units are involved

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and the price is agreed before we start.

Asking for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:

  • The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
  • A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
  • The fuse board and where it is in the property

Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, ring 07833 053749.

How it works

The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone, and we tidy up before we leave. Somewhere like Somerley, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.

  1. First comes a site survey of the building, its occupancy and the heat it has to deal with.
  2. You get a fixed-price quote with the equipment, the layout and the programme set out.
  3. We agree a programme that suits the site, including evening, weekend or phased installation.
  4. On site, the team mounts the plant, runs and proves the pipework, and wires the controls.
  5. Commissioning, F-gas records and a handover of the controls finish the job.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Ask for a quote

For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and tell us about the property and what you need. Photos help a lot. We reply to enquiries the same working day.

Advice

FAQs for Somerley

Is Somerley within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Somerley?

It depends on the property. The Somerley Conservation Area is close to the centre of Somerley. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof is not allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Chichester council, which is normally the planning authority for Somerley.

Which brands do you work with?

We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.

What types of commercial air conditioning do you install?

We install wall-mounted, cassette, ducted, multi-split and VRF systems. We recommend the type that suits your space.

Are you TM44 assessors?

The inspection itself must be done by an accredited energy assessor. What we do is prepare the system and carry out the improvements the report suggests.

Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?

Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.

Looking after it afterwards

Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep F-gas records together and up to date
  • Do not wait for small faults to become breakdowns
  • Budget for replacing ageing plant

Should anything seem off after handover, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will look into it. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns.

Replace ageing systems on your own timetable especially where top-up refrigerant is getting harder to buy.

From one of our customers

“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.”
