Commercial air conditioning for South Ealing

The process

If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins so it does not catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. A few pictures of the room, the outside wall and the fuse board help us plan a job in South Ealing.

  1. We start with the details of the building and the problem.
  2. We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and access.
  3. We set out the options, the price and the programme.
  4. We install around your hours, phased where necessary.
  5. We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking and loading
  • Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

Getting a quote

Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749 or email us.

Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in South Ealing

The right system depends on the building. Splits for small rooms, cassettes for open-plan ceilings, ducted for a hidden finish and VRF or VRV for many zones on one system. We set out the choices and the reasons behind our recommendation. Typical jobs include commercial systems near the end of their life and missing F-gas records for commercial systems, on wall-mounted split systems, ceiling cassettes and multi-split systems.

Commercial systems in South Ealing are often in shared buildings: offices above shops, restaurants below flats. That means planning noise, outdoor unit positions and access with the landlord or managing agent, and installs are often done out of hours.

For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

What affects the cost of commercial air conditioning

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

  • The number of rooms, units or zones
  • What we find on the survey or diagnosis
  • One-off work versus a regular service cycle

What you pay depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, the access and the parts and time the job needs. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • The remote or wall controller showing any error
  • The make and model of the system, from the label
  • A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on

Your questions about commercial air conditioning in South Ealing

Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in South Ealing?

It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. There’s a conservation area, the Ealing Green Conservation Area, close to central South Ealing. 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 isn’t allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask the planning department at Ealing council, normally the authority for South Ealing.

Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in South Ealing?

Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder typically have a say. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.

How soon will you get back to me?

You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.

When is a TM44 inspection required?

Over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is needed at least every 5 years. The rules are set out on GOV.UK, and we can help you prepare.

What warranty do I get?

Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.

Cooling for South Ealing businesses

There are about 443 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 13 hotels and guest houses and about 54 schools and colleges within about 1.5 miles of central South Ealing, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Many of those sites need air conditioning that is sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule. For London businesses, plant position, noise and access are planned with the building first.

For a church or hall like St Mary's Church, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first. If you look after a school such as Grange Primary School, classroom, office and IT room cooling is typically installed in the holidays.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us

Some faults have simple causes you can check first: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone 07833 053749 or email us.

Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.

Looking after your system

Aftercare is straightforward, and it helps at the next service:

  • Keep a log for each system
  • Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
  • Keep outdoor units clear of rubbish and stored goods

Make a note of when a TM44 inspection will be due if the system is over 12 kW. We can prepare the system and act on the report.

Make sure filters are maintained and outdoor units have space. Restricted airflow puts strain on the whole system.

From one of our customers

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
