How much does a VRF system cost in Surrey?

VRF (variable refrigerant flow) — called VRV by some manufacturers — is a commercial air conditioning system where one outdoor unit, or a bank of them, serves many indoor units through a shared refrigerant network.
Where we work around Surrey
We cover all of Surrey, including Woking, Guildford, Esher, Redhill and Staines. We quote for premises right across Surrey, including rural and edge-of-town sites.
Postcode districts we cover include CR3, GU6, GU19, GU27, KT15, KT23, RH8 and TW20. In Surrey, outdoor unit positions are often the deciding factor: a rear flat roof or yard is usually straightforward, while a front elevation may need landlord or planning consent first.
What the job covers
- Heat load and diversity calculations for every zone
- Two-pipe (heat pump) or three-pipe / two-pipe heat recovery system design
- Refrigerant pipework sizing, branch selectors and refrigerant charge calculation
- Leak detection where the refrigerant concentration limits require it
- Phased installation, pressure testing, commissioning and full F-gas records

From enquiry to handover in Surrey
Survey and loads
We calculate loads zone by zone and check roof or plant space, risers and ceiling voids.
System design
Outdoor units, indoor units, branch boxes and pipe sizes are designed together, including the refrigerant charge and any leak detection.
Phased first fix
Pipework and controls cabling go in floor by floor, often out of hours in occupied buildings. In Surrey we agree timings around your opening hours.
Pressure test and charge
The network is pressure tested, evacuated and charged with the calculated refrigerant quantity.
Commissioning
Each indoor unit is commissioned and the controls set up, with as-fitted drawings and F-gas records handed over.
Points to plan for in Surrey
Phasing
In occupied buildings we plan the work floor by floor so the business keeps running.
Leased premises
If your Surrey 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.
Refrigerant in occupied rooms
Because one network carries a large refrigerant charge, small rooms on the system are checked against the safety limits in BS EN 378 and may need leak detection.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Surrey 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.
Types of premises we cover in Surrey
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
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.

What is heat recovery VRF?
A version that can cool some zones and heat others at the same time, moving heat around the building instead of dumping it outside.
