Questions from South Willesborough
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in South Willesborough?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The centre of South Willesborough is in a conservation area. 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 the local planning authority (for South Willesborough, usually Ashford council) when it matters.
Can you do commercial air conditioning in South Willesborough?
We do: South Willesborough falls inside our working area. Just phone us on 07833 053749 or email us with a few details.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. We always look before we price, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
Do you carry out TM44 inspections?
The inspection itself must be done by an accredited energy assessor. Our part is getting the system ready and doing the follow-up work.
When is a TM44 inspection required?
The threshold is 12 kW of effective rated output, with inspections at least every 5 years. The inspection is done by an accredited assessor, and we do the follow-up work.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in South Willesborough
Businesses can’t always stop for an installation. Work can be done in the evening, at weekends or in phases so disruption is kept down. The timing is set out with your quote. We’re often asked to deal with IT rooms that need resilient cooling and workspaces that overheat on warm days, across ceiling cassettes, ducted systems and wall-mounted split systems.
Around South Willesborough, commercial jobs are typically a shop, surgery, pub, office or workshop. Many need just one to four indoor units, and we size them from a survey.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For instance, 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.

Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. We plan the visit to South Willesborough from the survey or your photos.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
- We set out the options, the price and the programme.
- We install around your hours, phased where necessary.
- We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.

What affects the cost of commercial air conditioning
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- The number of rooms, units or zones
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- What kind of system it is
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
Quotes don’t take long. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.

For landlords and property managers
From a single flat to a whole estate, the approach is the same: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
What the work involves, system by system
Server and comms rooms
Planned maintenance is especially important for continuous cooling, and a maintenance contract keeps it on schedule.
Ducted systems
The unit needs room in the void and an access hatch for filters, drain and fan to be serviced.
