Covering Cheltenham and nearby
Cheltenham is a large town in Gloucestershire, with a busy centre, retail parks and industrial estates on its edges. Gloucester is about 12 km away.
That includes premises in GL50 and GL52 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Tewkesbury, Gloucester and Stroud. Buildings across Gloucestershire range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
Included as standard
- Survey and unit sizing
- Wall-mounted, floor-standing or under-ceiling indoor units
- Outdoor unit on wall brackets, a flat roof frame or ground mounts
- Condensate drainage
- Commissioning, remote or wired controls and F-gas records

How it works in Cheltenham
Survey
We size the unit to the room and agree indoor and outdoor positions and the pipe route.
Mount the units
Indoor unit on a mounting plate, outdoor unit on brackets or a frame with anti-vibration mounts.
Pipe and wire
Pipework, interconnecting cable and condensate are run and made off neatly. In Cheltenham we agree timings around your opening hours.
Test and commission
Pressure test, evacuation, any extra refrigerant charge, then commissioning and handover.
Points to plan for in Cheltenham
One outdoor unit, many rooms
Multi-splits save wall space but share a single compressor. For server rooms or critical spaces we recommend dedicated systems.
Working hours
Most Cheltenham businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Pipe routes
Shorter, simpler pipe routes are cheaper and more reliable. We plan routes before quoting.
Leased premises
If your Cheltenham 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.
Typical premises in Cheltenham
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
- Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
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.
