Questions from Ashington
Can you do air conditioning in Ashington?
Yes, Ashington is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Can I fit air conditioning in Ashington without planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Historic England lists about 12 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Ashington. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones can’t, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the local planning authority (for Ashington, typically Horsham council).
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
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 systems need a ceiling void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling and the survey confirms what’s possible.
Does air conditioning need its own electrical supply?
In most cases, yes: a dedicated circuit is needed. Under Part P, a new circuit has to be notified unless a registered competent person does it, and we are NICEIC approved, so we can install and certify it.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Ashington
Any installation we do in Ashington 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. Air con, air conditioning, a split system: whatever you call it, it’s the job we do every week across West Sussex.
New circuits are done by our NICEIC approved electricians, so the electrical paperwork comes with the installation.
Homes around Ashington normally have room outside for an outdoor unit. More often it’s the walls, the electrics and the length of the pipe run that need thinking about.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

What else we do in Ashington
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and call us on 07833 053749 or email us.
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
The process
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Ashington.
- We survey the property, or work from your photos for a simple job.
- Each room is sized and the unit positions agreed, then you get a fixed-price quote.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.
How to prepare
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
How to get a quote
For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and tell us about the property and what you need. A few photos make it quicker. You will hear back from us the same working day.
Advice
What affects the cost of air conditioning
Our prices page gives typical ranges, and your quote is built on your job. What we look at:
- The condition of any existing system
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
A single unit or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
Before you get in touch
Simple jobs can often be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The address and the type of property
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
If you need air conditioning in Ashington, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line. Let us know the type of property and what you need, and send a few photos if you can. Enquiries get a reply the same working day.
When something else is needed
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Building damp that has a structural cause
- A building fabric problem such as single glazing or no loft insulation
- A room that cannot take an outdoor unit or pipe route without the landlord’s, management company’s or council’s consent (that consent comes first)
If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 and we will say what we think before booking.

A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
