Things to check in Catford
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.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Catford are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Working hours
Most Catford businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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.
Common questions in Catford
How much does commercial air conditioning cost in Catford?
A single wall-mounted split typically costs £1,850–£3,150 plus VAT installed in Catford, and a ceiling cassette £2,750–£6,350 per unit. A small shop or office with two to four indoor units usually comes to £6,350–£20,995 plus VAT.
Do you also cover Blackheath, Greenwich and Beckenham?
Yes. Alongside Catford, we also cover Blackheath, Greenwich and Beckenham. 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.
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.
