If your building has more than 12kW of air conditioning, you’re legally required to have a TM44 Energy Assessment every five years. It’s not optional – it’s the law.
We’re the only certified TM44 assessors based on the Isle of Wight, accredited through Elmhurst Energy, the UK’s leading energy assessment body. No ferry charges, no call centres, no subcontractors – just quick, professional compliance from a trusted local provider.
We can combine your TM44 inspection with F-Gas checks and asset tagging in one visit.
We live and work on the Island. Mainland companies? They’ve never heard of Arreton, couldn’t find Ryde without a sat nav, and will happily add £150 in travel costs.
Here’s what makes us different:
A fully compliant TM44 Energy Report uploaded to the official register.
Straightforward energy efficiency recommendations.
F-Gas compliance, asset registers, energy-saving upgrades, planned maintenance.
No last-minute panic when the landlord, auditor or council asks.
If you’ve got more than three standard wall-mounted AC units, or one large ducted system, you’re probably over the 12kW threshold.
That includes:
TM44 inspections are a legal requirement under the Energy Performance of Buildings Regulations.
Failure to comply can result in £300 fines per week, per site! Plus enforcement action.

We’re not just assessors – we’re engineers.
That means when we carry out a TM44, we actually understand the systems behind the ceiling tiles. If your report highlights inefficiencies or issues, we can:
