About our commercial air conditioning in White Colne
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’re not assessors, but we prepare systems for inspection and act on what the report finds. If you are dealing with changes of use that need a new layout and buildings that can’t close for the work, we can help.
For a business near White Colne, outdoor units usually have room at the back of the building.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

Why it’s worth doing now in White Colne
Small faults in a commercial system can spread to the whole building’s comfort. Planned maintenance catches issues before they grow, and keeps the system running the way it was designed to. A system that is left with a fault, or without a service, normally costs more to run.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are not sure what’s needed, call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.

What commercial work looks like in White Colne
Food Standards Agency records list about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 care, childcare and hospital premises within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of White Colne. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use.
Before any plant goes outside a building like Parish Church of St Andrew, its trustees may need planning or heritage advice, and we work with whoever gives it. If you look after a school such as Earls Colne Primary School and Nursery, classroom, office and IT room cooling is typically installed in the holidays.

The process
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. Work in White Colne is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
Ask for a quote
Every quote starts with a look at the job, 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.

Questions from White Colne
Can I fit air conditioning in White Colne without planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central White Colne is a short walk from the Earls Colne and White Colne West and East Conservation Area. 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 Braintree council, which is typically the planning authority for White Colne.
Will you come out to White Colne?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer, so keep your service records.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
How much does commercial air conditioning cost?
We price commercial work after visiting the site. That lets us size the system properly and plan the work and you get a fixed price.
Can you work around our opening hours?
Yes. Work can be scheduled around your hours, including phased work floor by floor.

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
