The steps for a project in Canary Wharf

  1. Survey

    We measure the space, check the ceiling void, wall construction, glazing and occupancy, and agree where indoor and outdoor units can go. For sites in Canary Wharf we confirm access and parking beforehand.

  2. Design and quote

    You get a written specification with unit sizes, positions, pipe routes and a fixed price — plus any planning, landlord or noise points to resolve first.

  3. First fix

    Pipework, cabling and condensate runs go in, usually above ceilings or in neat trunking, before the units are hung.

  4. Install and test

    Indoor and outdoor units are fitted, the system is pressure tested with nitrogen, evacuated and charged with refrigerant.

  5. Commission and hand over

    We set up controls, check air flows and temperatures, show your team how to use it and hand over the F-gas and commissioning paperwork.

Things to check in Canary Wharf

Landlord consent

Leased premises

If your Canary Wharf 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.

Planning and noise

Outdoor units on commercial buildings often need planning permission — particularly on a front elevation, in a conservation area or on a listed building — and councils may ask for a noise assessment.

Conservation areas

Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Canary Wharf are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.

Who we work with in Canary Wharf

  • Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.

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.
