Common questions in Tillington
Is Tillington in your area for commercial air conditioning?
We do: Tillington falls inside our working area. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few photos.
Will air conditioning in Tillington need planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central Tillington sits inside the Tillington 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 needed, we check with Chichester council, which is usually the planning authority for Tillington.
What does the operator have to do under the F-gas rules?
It depends on the system’s tCO2e. From 5 tCO2e, leak checks and records are needed, and from 500 tCO2e automatic leak detection is required.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Can you do our TM44 air conditioning inspection?
TM44 inspections are carried out by accredited energy assessors, which we are not. We get the system ready and act on the findings.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Tillington
Air conditioning systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW must have a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. An accredited energy assessor carries it out. We do not carry out the inspection itself, but we prepare the system and do the work it recommends. The work covers multi-split systems, server and comms room cooling and ceiling cassettes, and common reasons people get in touch are changes of use that need a new layout and installs that must fit around trading hours.
Around Tillington, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, shops, halls, surgeries and farm or rural businesses. Older buildings may be listed, so planning comes first.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

The process
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it doesn’t catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Tillington.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- Installation goes ahead around the business.
- We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.
How to prepare
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

What happens if it’s left?
An older system on R410A can be kept running, but top-up refrigerant is getting scarcer and dearer. Planning a replacement on your own timetable beats replacing it after a major failure. Planning ahead for a job in Tillington means we can bring everything needed.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly:
- Budget for replacing ageing plant
- Show staff how to use the controls properly

For systems that require leak checks, the first date goes in the diary and we can cover it under a contract.
Planned maintenance is the best way to keep a commercial system healthy. The schedule and cost are fixed up front.
Pricing commercial air conditioning in Tillington
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
Putting several jobs into one visit often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed

- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
