  • Gas boiler or heating plumbing work
  • Getting landlord or building owner approval

Commercial air conditioning in Southend, done properly

Once a system is in, it needs looking after. Maintenance contracts cover servicing, F-gas leak checks and the records that go with them with the cost agreed up front. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns. If you are dealing with new tenancies needing cooling and heating and comms rooms without enough cooling, we can sort it out.

Space for outdoor units is tight in much of London, Southend included, so roofs, light wells and basements are common positions. VRF systems can serve many indoor units from a small number of outdoor units, which helps in dense areas.

The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

Questions from Southend

Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Southend?

Normally, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. 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.

Can you do commercial air conditioning in Southend?

Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Southend is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.

How quickly will you reply?

We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

Can I do the refrigerant work myself?

No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.

Will you make a mess?

Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.

How much does commercial air conditioning cost?

A survey comes first, then a fixed-price quote. Factors include the number of areas, the system type, access and any out-of-hours or phased work.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes. You get a written record of every visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.

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

Ducted units sit in the ceiling void and deliver air through grilles. They’re chosen where appearance matters, such as hotels, restaurants and shops.

How it works

Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. A few pictures of the room, the outside wall and the fuse board help us plan a job in Southend.

  1. An engineer walks the building with you to understand its layout, its users and its heat sources.
  2. A fixed-price quote follows, covering the system type, the layout and the timing.
  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. The system is commissioned and you receive the F-gas records, handover notes and manufacturer paperwork.

Before we arrive

  • Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Get a fixed-price quote

Here’s what helps 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 any symptoms, from error codes to drips. Once you have those, call 07833 053749 or email us.

Advice

Cooling for Southend businesses

There are about 231 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 4 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses and about 37 schools and colleges within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Southend, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Restaurants, hotels, schools and care settings each need cooling designed for their hours and heat loads. London commercial jobs usually involve a landlord or managing agent, and plant space is often tight.

For a school like Elfrida Primary School, air conditioning work is best done out of term. For premises near Bellingham station, we plan plant positions and working hours with the landlord or managing agent first, where there is one.
