From site survey to commissioning — industrial chiller systems designed, installed and signed off by our in-house engineers, across the UK.
A well-installed chiller should disappear into your process — running quietly, meeting its duty, and costing you nothing in unplanned downtime. A poorly installed one costs you three times: in energy, in production time, and in refrigerant compliance headaches.
Summit Process Cooling has been designing and installing industrial chiller systems since 1989. Our in-house team handles every stage under one roof — site survey, thermal load calculation, chiller specification, pipework fabrication, electrical install, commissioning and handover — for process manufacturers, food and beverage producers, pharmaceutical sites, plastics processors and data centre operators across England, Wales and Scotland.
One supplier. One project manager. One point of accountability.
Summit Systems has been solving industrial temperature-control problems for UK manufacturers for over 35 years. Our process cooling division has delivered installations for blue-chip food, pharma and plastics processors.
Design engineers, project managers, refrigeration technicians and pipework installers all work for Summit. No passing the parcel between third parties when something needs resolving on site.
Our engineers cover England, Wales and Scotland from Tamworth and Fareham. Most sites can be reached within half a working day.
Summit was the first plastics-sector supplier to offer 24/7 emergency assistance. Your install is backed by the same cover from day one.
We know because we track it.

A straightforward skid-built chiller with pre-prepared pipework can be installed and commissioned in 2–3 days on site. Larger site-built systems with extensive pipework runs and BMS integration typically take 1–3 weeks. Your site survey report will include a firm timeline.
We handle it. Pipework fabrication, insulation, pump skids and buffer tanks are included in our installation scope as standard. Our pipework installers are part of the same in-house team that designs the chiller.
We are. All Summit install engineers are F-Gas certified and we’re REFCOM-accredited, which covers the refrigerant handling, leak checking and record-keeping required under the F-Gas Regulation.
By measuring, not guessing. Our site survey captures your actual process load — peak duty, average duty, ambient conditions, and the temperature tolerance your process can accept. We design the chiller against that load with sensible margin, not against a nameplate rule of thumb.
Yes. We install units from any manufacturer, and we’ll commission and certify it to the same standard as a unit we’ve supplied.
Yes – and where the refrigerant can be recovered for reuse, we’ll do that. Decommissioning, refrigerant recovery and plant strip-out can be included in the quote.
Your installation comes with full O&M documentation and operator training. We’ll also offer a preventative maintenance package to keep the system in warranty and running efficiently — but it’s optional, not a lock-in.
Send us a few details about your site, your process, and your rough timeline. An engineer will come back to you within one working day to arrange a site survey — no obligation, no salesperson.
