Professional TM44 Air Conditioning Inspections and Compliance
A TM44 inspection is a legally required assessment of a building’s air conditioning systems, designed to improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact. At Bradley Environmental Consultants, our trusted specialist partners deliver compliant TM44 inspections that help ensure your building meets regulatory requirements while reducing energy consumption and operating costs.
What Is a TM44 Inspection?
A TM44 inspection is a detailed survey of air conditioning systems carried out in line with guidance from the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE). Its primary purpose is to:
- Improve system efficiency
- Reduce energy usage and carbon emissions
- Lower operational costs
- Support legal and regulatory compliance
TM44 inspections are required for most air conditioning systems with an effective rated output of 12kW or more.
Why TM44 Compliance Matters
Regular TM44 inspections help organisations meet statutory compliance requirements, identify energy-saving opportunities, reduce environmental impact, and minimise the risk of enforcement action. They also demonstrate a strong commitment to sustainability and responsible building management.
A valid TM44 report is essential for audits, property transactions, and regulatory inspections, providing clear evidence of compliance and efficient system operation.
How Much Does a TM44 Inspection Cost?
The cost of a TM44 inspection varies, as no two sites are the same. Pricing depends on factors such as:
- Building size and layout
- Number and type of air conditioning units
- System complexity
- Level of inspection required
TM44 Inspection Levels
There are two main assessment levels:
- Level 3 – For standard split and multi-split systems
- Level 4 – Required for sites with air handling units or centralised chillers
Level 4 inspections typically cost more due to increased site time and more detailed reporting requirements.
If you’re unsure which level applies to your building, our compliance team can advise and provide a free quotation.
