FAQs for Wrotham
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Wrotham?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central Wrotham is a short walk from the Wrotham Conservation Area. An air-to-air system used for heating as well as cooling can be permitted development on a house if it meets the conditions, but a cooling-only unit is not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with Tonbridge and Malling council, which is normally the planning authority for Wrotham.
Do you cover Wrotham for commercial air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Wrotham is part of that. To start, call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few pictures.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
How long does a commercial installation take?
An installation takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. The survey lets us set a firm programme, and you can ring us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form to book it.
Which commercial systems do you fit?
Everything from wall-mounted units for single rooms to VRF or VRV systems serving whole buildings. Cassettes and ducted units suit offices, shops and restaurants.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
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.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We’re also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Commercial air conditioning in Wrotham, done properly
Many sites need more than cooling. Air conditioning systems can heat as well as cool, and we also install ventilation and MVHR for a joined-up system. If you are dealing with staff complaining about the temperature and older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer, we can sort it out.
In a village like Wrotham, commercial air conditioning is typically for a pub, a shop, a surgery, a village hall or a rural business. Older buildings may be listed or in a conservation area, so we check the planning side first.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Aftercare tips
Simple habits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Avoid units heating and cooling the same space
- Book a maintenance contract to keep servicing on schedule
- Review older R410A systems before they need major repairs
Equipment warranties come from the manufacturer. We explain the terms for your brand, including any servicing conditions and you will know what they ask for.
Replace ageing systems on your own timetable, particularly where they use R410A.
The process
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes a matter of days for a modest fit-out, with larger buildings phased floor by floor or zone by zone. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Wrotham easier.
- You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Keep pets and children away from the work area

Advice
When to call us in Wrotham
Heat builds up in commercial spaces from occupants, equipment, lighting and sunshine and windows alone can’t always shift it. A system sized for the real heat load deals with it.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Staff complaining about the temperature
- Commercial systems near the end of their life
- Installs that must fit around trading hours
Healthcare premises near Sevenoaks Hospital need air conditioning that is easy to clean and maintained on a schedule.

Safe owner checks
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. 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.
