How we handle commercial air conditioning in Wincheap
Businesses can’t always stop for an installation. We plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs so disruption is kept down. The timing is set out with your quote. The work covers ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems, and the jobs we see most are systems that need out-of-hours or phased installation and older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer.
For a business in or near Wincheap, an air-to-air system can heat and cool, which can replace old heaters in shops and offices.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

Different systems, different jobs
Ducted systems
A single ducted unit can feed several grilles where the layout allows.
Offices
Installation can be done out of hours or floor by floor to keep staff working.
What happens if it’s left?
Where the system is over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is due at least every 5 years. Acting on the findings can improve how the system runs and we can do the work they recommend. For a place like Wincheap, booking ahead lets us plan the visit properly.
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.

Wincheap: your questions answered
Do you cover Wincheap for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Wincheap is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Is air conditioning in Wincheap permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The Canterbury City Conservation Area takes in the middle of Wincheap. 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 necessary, we check with the planning department at Canterbury City council, typically the authority for Wincheap.
Can you install out of hours?
Yes, timing is agreed to suit you. Shops, offices, restaurants and schools all have different needs, and we plan for them.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects and stick to the interval they set.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
