How we handle commercial air conditioning in Upper Clapton
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 do not carry out the inspection itself, but we prepare the system and do the work it recommends. If you’re dealing with leak check schedules that have slipped and staff complaining about the temperature, we can sort it out.
Space for outdoor units is tight in much of London, Upper Clapton included, so roofs, light wells and basements are common positions. VRF systems can serve many indoor units from a small number of outdoor units, which helps in dense areas.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Why act early in Upper Clapton
In a comms room, losing the cooling can soon become serious. Reviewing the cooling and adding resilience is best done in advance. Hot weather is when everyone in London wants air conditioning, so it’s easier to plan the work in Upper Clapton early.
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.

The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. A note on parking and access helps us plan a visit to Upper Clapton.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and access.
- We set out the options, the price and the programme.
- Installation goes ahead around the business.
- We commission it, hand it over and can set up a maintenance contract.
Getting ready for the visit
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, a few photos, the make and model of any existing system and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Once you have those, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Related advice
Do you need commercial air conditioning in Upper Clapton?
In schools, the work has to fit around term time. We plan installs for holidays and weekends to keep teaching undisturbed.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Offices that get too hot in summer
- Server rooms running too warm
- R410A systems getting dearer to top up
If you look after a school such as Harrington Hill Primary School, classroom, office and IT room cooling is normally installed in the holidays.
Before you book anyone
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Every visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Upper Clapton: your questions answered
Is Upper Clapton in your area for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Upper Clapton is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Upper Clapton?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder usually have a say. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Every visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
How much does commercial air conditioning cost?
Every commercial job is priced after a site survey. The cost depends on the size of the space, the system and how the work is phased, and you get a fixed-price quote before work starts.
Do you carry out TM44 inspections?
We’re not accredited energy assessors, so we don’t inspect. We can prepare for the inspection and put right what it finds.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance for businesses?
We do, with contracts covering servicing, leak checks and the paperwork. We agree the schedule and cost up front.
