Where we work around Ely

That includes premises in CB7 and the surrounding districts. Nearby, we also cover Newmarket (about 20 km), March (about 21 km) and Cambridge (about 24 km).

What to think about in Ely
Working hours
Most Ely businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Leased premises
If your Ely premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Ely are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.
FAQs for Ely
How much does commercial air conditioning cost in Ely?
A single wall-mounted split typically costs £1,550–£2,650 plus VAT installed in Ely, and a ceiling cassette £2,295–£5,350 per unit. A small shop or office with two to four indoor units usually comes to £5,350–£17,795 plus VAT.
Do you also cover Newmarket, March and Cambridge?
Yes. Alongside Ely, we also cover Newmarket, March and Cambridge. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which refrigerant do new systems use?
Most new small split systems use R32, because new single splits under 3 kg in Great Britain cannot use refrigerants with a GWP of 750 or more. Larger systems vary by equipment.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new installations and replacements on the UK mainland. Service, repair and inspection visits are priced before we book them.
Do you service systems you did not install?
Yes. We service most commercial makes and models; tell us the make and model if you know them.
