Overheated offices reduce productivity, and server rooms or commercial kitchens that cannot maintain the right temperature create serious operational risks. Commercial air conditioning covers a wide range of applications, from a single VRF cassette unit in a small office above a Cambridge shop to a multi-zone system across a two-storey commercial building. The right system depends on floor area, occupancy, heat load from equipment, and how the building is used.

For most commercial projects we install cassette units, wall-mounted splits, or ducted systems, depending on the ceiling type and the look the client wants. VRF (variable refrigerant flow) systems suit larger buildings because one outdoor unit can serve many indoor units at different temperatures simultaneously. We carry out a full heat load calculation before specifying anything, so the system is sized correctly rather than oversized, which wastes energy, or undersized, which means it never keeps up.

Commercial refrigerant systems must be installed and maintained by F-Gas certified engineers and are subject to mandatory leak checks at set intervals depending on the refrigerant charge size. Non-compliance can result in fines and invalidates insurance claims related to system failure. We handle all the paperwork and provide F-Gas certificates on completion.

We survey the premises at a time that suits you, usually outside business hours if preferred, and provide a detailed written specification and quote. Installation is planned to minimise downtime, and we regularly work evenings and weekends for businesses that cannot close during the day. All systems are commissioned, tested, and signed off before handover.

Commercial air conditioning in Cambridge is typically priced per indoor unit, with installed costs ranging from around £1,500 for a basic wall-mounted split to £4,000 or more for a ceiling cassette with complex pipework in a busy commercial environment.

Questions

Commercial Air Conditioning - common questions

How much does commercial air conditioning cost per unit in Cambridge?
Installed costs for a commercial unit in Cambridge typically run from around £1,500 for a straightforward wall-mounted split to £4,000 or more for a ceiling cassette in a busy commercial environment with complex pipework. Larger multi-zone VRF systems are priced per project following a full heat load survey. We provide a detailed written quote before any work starts.
How often does a commercial air conditioning system need servicing?
Under F-Gas regulations, commercial systems with a refrigerant charge of 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more require a leak check at least every 12 months, and larger systems every 6 months. Aside from the legal requirement, annual servicing is good practice for any commercial system because it catches small faults before they cause a breakdown. We offer service contracts to keep your maintenance schedule on track.
Can you install commercial air conditioning without closing our business?
In most cases, yes. We regularly carry out commercial installations during evenings and weekends specifically to avoid disruption to trading. We plan the work in phases where needed so that only one area is affected at a time. During the survey we will agree a schedule that suits your operations.
