Things to check in Lerwick
Working hours
Most Lerwick businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Lerwick are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Leased premises
If your Lerwick 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.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Lerwick 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.
Compliance in Scotland: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
FAQs for Lerwick
How much does commercial air conditioning cost in Lerwick?
A single wall-mounted split typically costs £1,500–£2,550 plus VAT installed in Lerwick, and a ceiling cassette £2,250–£5,195 per unit.

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.
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?
