Commercial air conditioning in Throwley
Commercial air conditioning comes with F-gas duties for the operator. Leak checks and records are required for systems from 5 tCO2e upwards. We handle the checks and records and remind you when the next is due. The work covers server and comms room cooling, ceiling cassettes and ducted systems, and common reasons people get in touch are comms rooms without enough cooling and fit-outs and refurbishments that need new air conditioning.
If you run a village hall or similar building near Throwley, heating and cooling that warms up fast suits a space used on and off, and it can heat as well as cool.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

How the job changes from property to property
VRF and VRV systems
With VRF or VRV, one set of outdoor units serves many indoor units. Each zone can be controlled separately making it a common choice for larger buildings.
Ceiling cassettes
A cassette needs space above the ceiling and a route for the condensate. Many have a built-in pump to lift the condensate and that’s checked when it’s serviced.
Throwley questions
Is Throwley in your area for commercial air conditioning?
We do: Throwley falls inside our working area. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 with a few pictures.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Throwley?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Around 9 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Throwley. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not 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 Swale council, which is usually the planning authority for Throwley.
How much time does a commercial air con install need?
The work takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone. The survey lets us set a firm programme, so give us a ring on 07833 053749 to arrange one.
How does the warranty work?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer so it’s worth keeping the service records.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Which brands do you work with?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
How it works
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Throwley easier.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
- We set out the options, the price and the programme.
- We install around your hours, phased where necessary.
- The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
Getting a price
To help us quote: the address and the type of property, pictures of the rooms or units, the make and model of any existing system and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.

When to call us in Throwley
Heat builds up in commercial spaces from occupants, equipment, lighting and sunshine and windows alone cannot always shift it. A system sized for the real heat load deals with it.
Customers typically contact us after spotting one of these:
- Buildings that can’t close for the work
- Offices that get too hot in summer
- Leak check schedules that have slipped
Larger commercial systems need F-gas leak checks and, over 12 kW of cooling, TM44 inspections.
Comparing quotes
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
