What they do

Independent Heating & Cooling (IHC) trades from Unit 10, Apex Park in Hailsham. The legal entity is The Independent Heating Company Limited, incorporated on 12 May 1987, which makes 39 years at Companies House. Air conditioning is one division of a heating and ventilation business.

The work is commercial and industrial only; the site doesn't offer domestic installation. It says it designs and installs air conditioning for commercial spaces across Brighton and Hove, and installs and services systems for all types of commercial or industrial premises. It lists single split, multi split and VRF systems, and claims over 30 years of experience in commercial and industrial heating and air conditioning.

Free site surveys include AutoCAD drawings and specification options. Service and maintenance packages are offered, and the Brighton packages cover everything from routine checks to emergency repairs. The site doesn't say which brands it installs.

Credentials

F-gas: verified on the REFCOM register, listed as "The Independent Heating Company Ltd t/a Independent Heating & Cooling" in Hailsham. The installer's own service pages also mention F-gas qualified engineers and the F-gas regulations. It isn't listed on Quidos.
