Working in Salford
Salford is a large town in Greater Manchester, with a busy centre, retail parks and industrial estates on its edges. Manchester is about 4 km away.
We work across Salford's postcode districts, including M5, M6, M50, MK17 and OX7. We also work in nearby Eccles, Manchester and Prestwich.
In Salford, outdoor unit positions are often the deciding factor: a rear flat roof or yard is usually straightforward, while a front elevation may need landlord or planning consent first.
Service and repair visits in Salford are booked around your opening hours, with the price agreed before we come.

Before you book in Salford
Leased premises
If your Salford 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.
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.
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.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
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.
Common questions in Salford
How much does commercial air conditioning cost in Salford?
A single wall-mounted split typically costs £1,395–£2,395 plus VAT installed in Salford, and a ceiling cassette £2,095–£4,850 per unit. A small shop or office with two to four indoor units usually comes to £4,850–£16,150 plus VAT.
Do you also cover Eccles, Manchester and Prestwich?
Yes. Alongside Salford, we also cover Eccles, Manchester and Prestwich. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Do you handle landlord consent?
We supply the drawings, unit data sheets and method of fixing your landlord or managing agent will ask for.
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.
Can you work outside our opening hours?
Yes. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged, and any extra cost is shown in the quote.
