Air conditioning in West Sussex: how it works

Any installation we do in West Sussex follows the same process as everywhere else we work: a site survey, or pictures for simple jobs, then a fixed-price quote, the installation, commissioning and F-Gas records. The price is fixed up front and the records are handed over at the end. The work covers ducted systems, multi-split systems and wall-mounted split systems, and the jobs we see most are an old system that needs replacing and uncertainty over the right type and size of system.

We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, the work takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system.

  1. First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
  2. Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
  3. Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where needed.
  4. Testing: the circuit is pressure tested and evacuated before the refrigerant is released.
  5. The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.

What you’ll pay

No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.

Around Crawley

We fit and service air conditioning in homes and premises around Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony, St Wilfrid's Catholic School and Tilgate Park. Nearby too are The George Hotel (under half a mile north), Three Bridges Junior School (within half a mile south-east) and St Francis of Assisi Catholic Primary School (less than half a mile south-east). There’s a railway station in Crawley itself: Crawley station. Well-known places in the area include Crawley Hospital (0.5 miles north-west) and County Mall (under half a mile north-east). Open spaces near Crawley include Tilgate Lake.

Where we install in West Sussex

From Crawley, Horsham and Worthing outwards, West Sussex has every kind of home. We survey every property before we quote.

We reply to enquiries from West Sussex the same working day, and our emergency line is open 24/7. Near the coast in West Sussex, outdoor units last longer with shelter from sea wind and a yearly service.

Crawley: Close to Crawley station? A small study or box room used for work can typically be cooled with a single indoor unit. Homes near Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.

Different systems, different jobs

Ceiling cassettes

A cassette needs a void above the ceiling for the unit, pipework and drain, with a condensate pump where the drain cannot fall naturally. We check the ceiling void on the survey.

Wall-mounted split systems

A wall-mounted split is the most common choice for a single room. One unit inside, one outside, connected by pipework, a cable and a drain, with the route agreed on the survey.

How we price air conditioning

Your quote is based on your property. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
  • What state the existing equipment is in
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • The pipe route between the units

Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.

What to send for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Your consumer unit or fuse board
  • The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
  • A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
  • A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on

Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

Rented and managed buildings

Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the paperwork can go to both.

What happens if it’s left?

Size matters more than brand. Too small, and it runs flat out without catching up; too big, and it switches on and off and wastes energy. Getting the sizing right at the survey stage avoids both problems.

Comparing quotes

  • Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
  • If the figure could change on the day
  • What the manufacturer’s warranty covers and for how long
  • What records you get at the end

Common questions in West Sussex

What size air conditioning unit do I need?

Floor area is only part of it. Glazing, orientation, the roof and what goes on in the room all affect it, and we take them all into account on the survey.

Does air conditioning need its own electrical supply?

Typically, yes. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote, and our NICEIC approval covers the installation and certificate.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.

Do you protect the property while you work?

Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.

Does servicing affect my warranty?

Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so it’s worth checking. Keep every service record either way.

How much does air conditioning installation cost?

Single-room systems start from £1,200 + VAT and are typically up to £2,200 + VAT. The price includes supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation and is fixed after a survey or from pictures.

Which type of system should I choose?

The right one depends on how many rooms you want to cool, how much space there is outside and how visible you want the indoor units to be. Ducted units need a void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling and the survey confirms what’s possible.
