Points to plan for in Kettering
Working hours
Most Kettering businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Leased premises
If your Kettering 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 Kettering are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
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.
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 Kettering
How much does commercial air conditioning cost in Kettering?
A single wall-mounted split typically costs £1,395–£2,395 plus VAT installed in Kettering, 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 Wellingborough, Corby and Rushden?
Yes. Alongside Kettering, we also cover Wellingborough, Corby and Rushden. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
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.
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 service systems you did not install?
Yes. We service most commercial makes and models; tell us the make and model if you know them.
