How we handle commercial air conditioning in Standford
Commercial air conditioning comes with F-gas duties for the operator. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks, and records kept of the checks and the work done. We handle the checks and records and remind you when the next is due. The work covers multi-split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems, and common reasons people get in touch are leak check schedules that have slipped and older systems that can’t keep up.
Around Standford, there’s normally space for outdoor plant away from the road, out of sight and away from neighbours.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer, so keep it safe.

What else we do in Standford
Let and managed properties
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork, and we will keep everyone informed.
FAQs for Standford
Can I fit air conditioning in Standford without planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The centre of Standford is in the River Wey Conservation Area. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that are not used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with East Hampshire council, which is usually the planning authority for Standford.
Do you cover Standford for commercial air conditioning?
We do: Standford falls inside our working area. Just call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few details.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. Every visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
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.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we will agree what happens next.
How we price commercial air conditioning
Your quote is based on your property. We consider:
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The brand, model and parts involved
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
To get a fixed-price quote, ring us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and tell us about the property and what you need. Photos help a lot. We reply to enquiries the same working day.
The process
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 attention later is pointed out. The visit takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. We plan the trip to Standford around you.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and 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.
Before we arrive
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
Getting a quote
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, call us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Advice
Cooling for Standford businesses
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 13 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 3 schools and colleges and about 8 care homes, nurseries and hospitals within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Standford. Many of those sites need air conditioning that is sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule.
A bursar or site manager at a school like Weyford Nursery and Primary School will want the install planned around the school calendar, and we work to that. For a church or hall like St Mark's Sacred Church, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first.
