Air conditioning in Greater London: how it works

Across Greater London, every installation follows the same steps: survey, fixed-price quote, a neat installation, full commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork. The price is fixed up front and the records are handed over at the end. The work covers ceiling cassettes, multi-split systems and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are bedrooms and offices that overheat in summer and a loft room or top floor that bakes in summer.

Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. The visit takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems.

  1. First comes a site survey, or photos and measurements for a straightforward job.
  2. We size the system for each room, then send a fixed-price quote with the units and where they go.
  3. On the day, we fit the indoor and outdoor units and run the pipework, cable and condensate drain.
  4. Power is wired in, the joints are proved leak-tight under pressure and a vacuum pump draws out air and moisture.
  5. The system is commissioned and checked in every mode, and we hand over the controls, F-Gas records and warranty information.

What you’ll pay

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed price.

Getting a price

VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. To get one, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.

Air conditioning around Greater London

From London, City of Westminster and Marylebone outwards, Greater London has every kind of home. We survey every property before we quote, then a fixed-price quote.

London and the South East cover everything from city flats to rural cottages. We’re F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps.

London: About 1 mile north stands Mansion House. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one. Homes near St George the Martyr are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.

Keeping the system healthy

Aftercare is straightforward, and it helps at the next service:

  • Keep the room closed while it runs
  • Refit filters properly after cleaning
  • File the paperwork with the manual
  • Report drips, noises or error codes straight away

Before we leave, the system is commissioned and tested in each mode. We check it’s running as the manufacturer intends, then show you the controls and the timer, so you’re confident using it.

Clean the filters regularly, not just at the service. Blocked filters cut airflow and make the system work harder, which costs you more to run.

When it’s something else

We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Building damp that has a structural cause
  • Central heating repairs
  • A ventilation problem rather than a temperature problem

What owners can safely do

Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.

Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.

Signs you need air conditioning

Bedrooms that are too warm at night are a frequent reason for a call. An open window does not always cool a bedroom that has warmed up all day, particularly when there’s no breeze.

Customers normally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Too many options and no clear advice
  • Portable units that are noisy and barely cope
  • A home office that warms up with screens and equipment
  • Commercial rooms that are too warm for staff

Common questions in Greater London

Is Greater London in your area?

Yes. Greater London is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover. We’re based in East Grinstead, West Sussex.

Where does the outdoor unit go?

Wall brackets, ground level and flat roofs are all options, wherever the pipe route, airflow and servicing access work best. Noise near bedrooms and boundaries is part of the decision and position can affect planning.

What warranty do I get?

It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer so it’s worth keeping the service records.

Can I use air conditioning to heat a room?

Most of the time, yes: modern splits are normally heat pumps, so they heat as well as cool. The Energy Saving Trust points out that an air-to-air heat pump is often just called air conditioning. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.

Does servicing affect my warranty?

For some brands, yes. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.

Do I get paperwork after the visit?

Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.

Which type of air conditioning is best?

Number of rooms, space outside and how much of the unit you want to see all decide it. Ducted systems need a ceiling void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling, which we check on the survey.
