Before you book in Dronfield

Switch it off

If water is coming through a ceiling or the unit is tripping, switch it off at the isolator until it is checked.

Working hours

Most Dronfield businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

Old refrigerant

Systems still on R22 cannot legally be topped up with virgin or recycled R22. Repairs on these are limited — replacement is often the realistic option.

Roof and height work

Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.

Types of premises we cover in Dronfield

  • Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.

  • Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
  • Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
