For the hospitality sector, obtaining an activity license may require an air conditioning certificate issued by the installer. When we work with a new premises undergoing the licensing process, we coordinate directly with the municipal technician to ensure the air conditioning paperwork is completed before the final inspection. Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, LG, Toshiba, Hitachi, Panasonic. For rooftop units: Carrier, York, Lennox. Selection is based on power, budget, and availability. 1x1 splits, 2x1 and 3x1 multi-splits, legal installation with F-Gas certification. Preliminary diagnosis and operational testing.

Professional calculation considers all these factors and correctly sizes the equipment. The price difference between a well-sized and a poorly-sized unit may seem significant at first. The final cost is borne by the customer who enters the shop or restaurant. Poorly air-conditioned premises lose customers in the summer when the heat becomes unbearable. For hospitality, where customer comfort directly determines revenue, the right equipment is an investment, not an expense. Commercial installations above a certain power rating (typically 70 kW thermal) require industrial registration and a project signed by an engineer. For medium-sized premises below this threshold, a certificate signed by an authorised installer is sufficient. In all cases, equipment must be CE marked and comply with European efficiency directives. F-Gas regulations also apply and mandate gas charge registration when it exceeds certain kilograms. Commercial equipment operates under much more demanding conditions than domestic units. 12-14 hours of daily operation during peak season, variable thermal loads throughout the day, accumulated dirt from higher air flow. Without proper maintenance, a breakdown during the peak season for a commercial venue costs not only the repair but also lost revenue due to hours or days of service interruption.

Official manufacturer warranty (3-5 years) plus our 30-day labour coverage. The second detail is the gas charge. The amount must be exactly as indicated by the manufacturer for the installed length of copper piping. An extra gram or two might not be noticeable immediately, but accumulated over 5 years, it leads to reduced performance. The charge is always done with a precision electronic scale, not estimated by pressure as some quick installers do. Toshiba, Panasonic, and Fujitsu are a step down in price but not significantly in quality. They are a good option for tighter budgets. More economical brands like Samsung, Hisense, or basic Hitachi models function correctly for the first four or five years, but their efficiency and durability are lower, and they typically require more maintenance.
