How we handle commercial air conditioning in Vale of Health
Buildings whose air conditioning totals more than 12 kW need a TM44 inspection at least every 5 years. The inspection is carried out by an accredited energy assessor. We don’t carry out the inspection itself, but we prepare the system and do the work it recommends. If you’re dealing with systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection and R410A systems getting dearer to top up, we can sort it out.
Space for outdoor units is tight in much of London, Vale of Health included, so roofs, light wells and basements are common positions. VRF systems keep outdoor plant down by serving many rooms from few outdoor units.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
How it works
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. The more we can see beforehand, the smoother the visit to Vale of Health will be.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- We install around your hours, phased where needed.
- The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

Business air conditioning in Vale of Health
There are about 372 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 19 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses and about 62 schools and colleges within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Vale of Health, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Many of those sites need air conditioning that is sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule. About 64% of homes across Vale of Health and its surrounding area were built before 1919, according to VOA council tax data, and about 72% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. Where shops and offices sit below or beside homes, outdoor plant position and noise need extra care. In London, commercial installs often need landlord consent, agreed plant positions and out-of-hours working.
If you look after a church or hall such as Christ Church, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents. If you look after a school such as Christ Church Primary School, classroom, office and IT room cooling is normally installed in the holidays.

Questions from Vale of Health
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Vale of Health?
It depends on the property. Central Vale of Health sits inside the Hampstead Conservation Area. 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 Camden council, which is usually the planning authority for Vale of Health.
Do you cover Vale of Health for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Vale of Health is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
How soon will you get back to me?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Does my building need a TM44 inspection?
If the air conditioning has an effective rated output over 12 kW, an inspection is required at least every 5 years. The rules are set out on GOV.UK and we’ll help with the system side.
Which brands do you work with?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
What commercial air conditioning cannot fix
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Major builder’s work such as new openings in structural walls
- Plumbing beyond the condensate drainage
- Fire risk assessments
If you are not sure, just ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll give you a straight answer.
