About our commercial air conditioning in Three Oaks
Many sites need more than cooling. Air conditioning systems can heat as well as cool, and we also install ventilation and MVHR for a joined-up system. Typical jobs include systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation and TM44 recommendations that need acting on, on multi-split systems, ducted systems and ceiling cassettes.
In a village like Three Oaks, commercial air conditioning is typically for a pub, a shop, a surgery, a village hall or a rural business. Older buildings may be listed, so planning comes first.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

Do you need commercial air conditioning in Three Oaks?
For hospitality, comfort is part of the experience. Each area has its own hours and heat load, which affects the type of system and controls we’d suggest.
What we are most often called about:
- Staff complaining about the temperature
- Installs that must fit around trading hours
- Systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection
For a church or hall like St Laurence's Church, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first.

Three Oaks questions
Can I fit air conditioning in Three Oaks without planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. A conservation area takes in the middle of Three Oaks. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the planning department at Rother council, usually the authority for Three Oaks.
Does being near the sea make a difference to commercial air conditioning in Three Oaks?
It can, as Three Oaks is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.
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 a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Can you install out of hours?
We can. We fit the installation around when the building is in use, including phased work floor by floor.
Do you carry out TM44 inspections?
We don’t carry out the inspection itself, as it needs an accredited energy assessor. What we do is prepare the system and carry out the improvements the report suggests.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
Operators of systems from 5 tCO2e upwards need leak checks and records. Checks are at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e, and we can handle both.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
What happens if it’s left?
A single system failure in a server room can quickly cause problems. Reviewing the cooling and adding resilience is best done in advance. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Aftercare tips
Simple habits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Do not let servicing slip
- Keep F-gas records together and up to date
- Keep plant areas tidy
Handover includes a walk-through of the controls, so the system is run the way it was designed. Simple settings make a real difference to comfort and running.
Simple control settings help. Units heating and cooling the same space at once is a common problem, and we can help set them up.

- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- You get our recommendation and a fixed price.
- We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
- The system is installed, wired and connected to its controls.
- Commissioning and handover follow, with the F-gas records and manufacturer paperwork.
Before we arrive
