South Newington: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like South Newington?
Yes. South Newington is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in South Newington?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The South Newington Conservation Area is close to the centre of South Newington. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to Cherwell council, which is typically the planning authority for South Newington when it matters.
Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?
TM44 inspections are carried out by accredited energy assessors, which we are not. We get the system ready and act on the findings.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
The operator and the service technicians share responsibility. The operator must make sure leak checks are done where required and records are kept, and we provide both.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
If the air conditioning has an effective rated output over 12 kW, an inspection is required at least every 5 years. GOV.UK has guidance on how it works, and we can help you prepare.
How does the warranty work?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer, so keep your service records.
How long does a commercial installation take?
Expect it to take anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. The size of the building, the system and any phasing make the biggest difference and the programme comes with your quote.
Commercial air conditioning in South Newington, done properly
The business that operates the system has F-gas responsibilities. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks, and records kept of the checks and the work done. We carry out the checks, keep the records and tell you when the next one is due. If the problem is installs that must fit around trading hours and ageing air conditioning that keeps breaking down, we can sort it out.
For a hall or similar building near South Newington, an air-to-air system that responds quickly suits intermittent use, and it can heat as well as cool.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

How the job changes from property to property
F-gas records and TM44

Offices
We can install in the evenings, at weekends or in phases, so the office stays open.
Pricing commercial air conditioning in South Newington
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

Before you call an engineer
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
