FAQs for St Luke's
Is St Luke's in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes, St Luke's is within the area we cover. Just ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few details.
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in St Luke's?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. 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.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
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 I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
What kind of air conditioning can you install in a business?
From one wall-mounted unit to VRF across several floors. Cassettes and ducted units are common choices for open-plan and visible spaces.
How long does a commercial installation take?
Expect it to take as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours. The scale and programme decide most of it, and we set out the timing with your quote.
Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in St Luke's
Server rooms and comms rooms need cooling that keeps going. The design accounts for the equipment’s heat and can include a second unit as backup, so a single fault doesn’t leave the room without cooling. The work covers ducted systems, multi-split systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about IT rooms that need resilient cooling and F-gas leak checks and records that are overdue.
In a London area like St Luke's, commercial air conditioning goes into offices, shops, restaurants and server rooms, often in shared buildings. So landlord consent, plant positions and noise all need agreeing first, and installs are often done out of hours.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Commercial air conditioning in St Luke's: local notes
There are about 2,774 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 126 hotels and guest houses and about 70 schools and colleges in and around St Luke's, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Many of those sites need air conditioning that’s sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule. Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 37% of homes in and around St Luke's were built in 2000 or later, and about 93% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). Where shops and offices sit below or beside homes, outdoor plant position and noise need extra care. London commercial jobs usually involve a landlord or managing agent, and plant space is often tight.
Before any plant goes outside a building like Jewin Welsh Presbyterian Chapel, its trustees may need planning or heritage advice, and we work with whoever gives it. Clinics, dental practices and pharmacies around St Luke's Hospital for Lunatics (about under half a mile east) usually want quiet indoor units with filters that are simple to keep clean.

How it works
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Send us a few phone pictures and we can often price a straightforward job in St Luke's before visiting.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- We recommend a system and send a fixed-price quote.
- The programme is agreed, including any out-of-hours or phased work.
- We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
How to prepare
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
Getting a quote
For a fixed-price quote, give us a ring on 07833 053749 and tell us about the property and what you need. A few pictures make it quicker. You’ll hear back from us the same working day.

- Fire risk assessments

System by system
F-gas records and TM44
TM44 inspections are done by accredited energy assessors. We do not inspect, but we get systems ready and do the follow-up work.
VRF and VRV systems
Larger systems carry more refrigerant so leak checks and records often apply. We work out the tCO2e and set the check schedule.
What affects the quote in St Luke's
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- What electrical work the job needs
One room or a whole building, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
What a customer said
“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.”
