Air conditioning and refrigeration historyCooling Brent, Barnet, Harrow, Ealing, Knightsbridge, Kensington & Chelsea since 1980.Starting as self-employed air conditioning and refrigeration engineers, in 1980, working as contractors for various companies around Brent, Barnet, Harrow, Ealing, Knightsbridge, Kensington & Chelsea. We soon realised we could provide a better quality of work, service and advice by running a business ourselves with our close network of interior designers, electrician, plumbers, and suppliers. After securing financial investment City Engineering was formed as a limited company in 1986. Now we exist as as a strong team of engineers based in Willesden Green, north west London, with a UK wide customer base. We used our experience to source the best air conditioning products for the best prices and have the ability to work closely with clients to achieve a high quality of finish. |
Air Condition Service & Maintenance
Service ContractsDomestic and Commercial PlansWe believe in being there when you need us, so, for a single annual fee we will come out to repair your air conditioning cooling and heating unit whenever it breaks down, whether it's a home air conditioner or on commercial premises. You don't even have to have had it installed with us, as long as you are with our part of our maintenance plan we'll repair your problem as soon as possible. We also recommend and advise that you have your heating cooling air conditioners serviced approximately twice a year, especially if you use them constantly for extended periods of time. This normally the minimum top manufactures require to qualify for their extended warranty. Having your aircon system serviced regularly can help to prevent unexpected breakdowns at inopportune moments that can lead to costly repair bills. |

The BasicsThe internal unit of an air conditioning system can be fitted on walls, at approximately head height, or as floor standing units. Larger systems are fitted within the ceiling void, to provide a finish that is close to the ceiling, can spread heat or cool air in up to 4 directions. These units are connected using copper pipe to allow heat transfer using environmentally friendly refrigerant gas. The split system or heat pump external unit is situated outside the building, and can be wall mounted on brackets, or placed at ground level or on a flat roof. Multi-split system allows one outside unit to power up to 4 internal units. |

Domestic Air Conditioning SolutionEnergy efficient cooling & heating air conditionersIn the past cooling & heating air conditioners were thought to be a luxury home appliance, and only for commercial property, but with prevalence of extreme seasonal temperatures and the number of heat-sensitive technology in our homes, many of us are realising that it is becoming a essential home. Our free site consultation provides clients with independent advice to ensure an energy efficient solution to your home can be achieved. |
Taking the stress out of home installationInstalling home air conditioning can not only be your solution to the hot, sticky summer weather, but also to freezing cold winters as modern air conditioning units can work either to keep you cool, or to keep you warm. All our customers are provided with a fixed quotation and offer extended warranties and after care servicing, with the domestic installation VAT rate at 5% this providing you with a cost effective heating and cooling solution that ensures you get a comfortable place to relax, eat, entertain and sleep. For the majority of homes, we recommend our multi-split inverter air con system, which have several benefits, including air cooling and heating. Not only are they energy efficient, they also allow you to switch off some rooms or to control each room’s temperature individually – saving you money with their lower electricity use. For example, in a three-bedroom house, including an attic conversion, you could have our multi-split system throughout the house to cover each bedroom, the living room and the kitchen and control each room temperature individually, or turn off the kitchen and bedrooms when everybody is in the living room. |

Installation of energy efficient systems into the modern Indian restaurant Headley Spice, Brentwood. SurgeriesSurgeries require a comfortable environment and atmosphere for their clients. We have installed a range of systems into dentist, veterinary clinics, hospitals and opticians. Customers and clients have all benefited from our services. |
OfficesThe heat generated from computers can be easily dealt with when the correct sized air conditioning system is installed. To have a positive affect on the productivity of staff, as well as their general well being, you need quiet and efficient systems, that form part of the surrounding not invade it. We specialise in working closely with the client to create a comfortable working environment, by using your ceiling voids and roof space rather that your valuable floor or wall space, or blocking natural light by using up window space. Many of our air conditioning systems allow for individual control so, for example, if you would like your reception area to be warm and welcoming in the winter, but need to cool the air in the kitchens, then one of our VRV or VRF systems would suit you perfectly. Saving you on running costs by utilising the most energy efficient systems. Computer roomsComputer and server rooms generate a lot of heat and so air conditioning is a vital. We can offer a range of solutions including full backup systems, close control units, alarm monitors and change over panels. Conscious that such rooms need to be constantly kept at cool temperature levels, our maintenance contracts offer clients the peace of mind. |

Every air condition installation is different, whether it is for a listed building, a complete refurbishment or a new build project, they all present their challenges in local planning restrictions or overcome building infrastructure problems. Our brief was to integrate cooling and heating systems into the apartment of a private customer, in Eaton place, while ensuring the systems and pipe-work have minimal impact on the aesthetics of each room. The solution was to supply and install a ducted system to be housed behind a false wall and allow a flat screen television to also be accommodated into the wall. In addition, supply and install floor standing systems that could be housed neatly in vented box. All ensuring the client is able to be comfortable and enjoy atmosphere created by the interior designer. Great work by the City Engineering air conditioning installer teams, working with the interior designer and meeting the client's needs to complete the work on time and on budget, installing air conditioning systems in London. Thank you to the client for allowing us to publish these images and trusting City Engineering to fulfil your heating and cooling needs. |

Every air condition installation is different, whether it is for a listed building, a complete refurbishment or a new build project, they all present their challenges in local planning restrictions or overcome building infrastructure problems. Many thanks to the City Engineering air conditioning installer teams for working around the time-lines of contractors, interior designs and the client's needs to complete the work on time and on budget installing air conditioning in Brentwood.

The solution was to supply and install ten Daikin Compact Cassette and two Fujitsu Ceiling and Wall split AC system. Providing expert advice regarding the types and location of air conditioning systems, to aesthetically blend into the surroundings while not compromising the cooling and heating efficiency for large open plan areas. All ensuring the customers at Headley Spice are able to enjoy the great food and atmosphere. Thank you to all the teams involved in the refurbishment at Headley Spice. Good to see the opening party went well and all the best for the continued success of the restaurant. |
Maintenance
|
| |
|
The running cost for a modern 7KW split air condition system is around 13p/hour. Therefore, a computer room running 24 hrs, 7 days for 52 weeks a year this comes to more £1,100 per year in running costs. Based on data from carbon trust. By not servicing this system, energy consumption of an air conditioning system can increase by 60%, you would be paying £660 per year extra in running cost; this is more than four times the price of our annual maintenance contract. In many cases, with longer plans and multiple units, this can be up to six times the cost our annual maintenance contract. Don’t delay, the quicker you have a maintenance contract in place the quicker you will save money. Here are some features that you should consider when thinking about how to maintain your air conditioning system: - Schedule: It's vital that you make maintenance a regular activity. Only then will you get the best out of your air conditioning system. No regular maintenance invalidates your manufactures warranty, so if it breaks down you may have to pay for replacement parts or systems. - Cleaning: Dirty components can significantly reduce the efficiency of your system, leading to increased energy costs. Make sure all components are regularly cleaned, particularly: Grilles, Fans, and Ductwork. Also, make sure to check the air conditioning's filters aren't blocked. It's possible to retro-fit gauges that will tell you when duct filters need replacing. - Condensers: Keep condensers clean and unobstructed. Condensers are usually located outside a building (their job is to expel heat from the building). They are usually wall-hung in small ‘split-systems’, or floor-standing for larger systems. - Insulation: Pipework insulation needs to be kept in good condition; otherwise more energy will be required to maintain the desired temperature. - Refrigerant leaks: It's vital that you check for refrigerant gas leaks and repair them immediately. A leak could really increase energy consumption. |
