Things to check in Grays
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.
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.
Working hours
Most Grays businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Grays often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
FAQs for Grays
How much does commercial air conditioning cost in Grays?
A single wall-mounted split typically costs £1,550–£2,650 plus VAT installed in Grays, 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 South Ockendon, Gravesend and Dartford?
Yes. Alongside Grays, we also cover South Ockendon, Gravesend and Dartford. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
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.
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.
Do you handle landlord consent?
We supply the drawings, unit data sheets and method of fixing your landlord or managing agent will ask for.
