Your questions about commercial air conditioning in Thorpe Green
Do you cover Thorpe Green for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. Thorpe Green is one of the places we cover. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few pictures.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Thorpe Green?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Around 6 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Thorpe Green. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof isn’t allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask the planning department at Runnymede council, usually the authority for Thorpe Green.
Are you TM44 assessors?
We’re not accredited energy assessors, so we do not inspect. We can prepare for the inspection and put right what it finds.
What types of commercial air conditioning do you install?
From one wall-mounted unit to VRF across several floors. Cassettes and ducted units suit offices, shops and restaurants.
Can I do the refrigerant work 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 can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Can you work around our opening hours?
Yes, the programme is built around the site. Every type of building has its own pattern and the plan reflects it.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Thorpe Green
Buildings whose air conditioning totals more than 12 kW need a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor carries it out; we’re not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. Typical jobs include commercial systems near the end of their life and comms rooms without enough cooling, across ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and wall-mounted split systems.
In a village like Thorpe Green, commercial air conditioning is usually for a pub, a shop, a surgery, a village hall or a rural business. Older buildings may be listed or in a conservation area, so we check the planning side first.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
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.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.

The process
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes as long as the site and the system need, from a short install to a phased project planned around opening hours. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Thorpe Green.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
Ask for a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Commercial air conditioning in Thorpe Green: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 20 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens, about 5 schools and colleges and about 4 care, childcare and hospital premises in and around Thorpe Green, up to about a mile and a half out. Each of those is a different cooling job, from kitchen heat to quiet bedrooms and server rooms.
Churches and halls such as Church of St Mary are often used a few hours at a time, which suits a system that heats or cools a space quickly, once consents are in place. A bursar or site manager at a school like Thorpe CofE Aided Primary School will want the install planned around the school calendar, and we work to that.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Review older R410A systems before they need major repairs
- Note the 5-yearly TM44 date for systems over 12 kW
- Plan the air conditioning alongside the fit-out
The warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s, on its own terms. We explain the terms for your brand, including any servicing conditions, so you know what’s needed.
Planned maintenance is the best way to keep a commercial system healthy. The schedule and cost are fixed up front.
When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Fire risk assessments
- Issuing TM44 reports
- Formal planning decisions, which rest with the council
If in doubt, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
