About our air conditioning in Ashlett
We approach an installation much as a doctor approaches a patient: survey first, install second, commission and hand over last. At sign-off, the system is tested in each mode, the controls are explained and the F-Gas records are left with you. Whether you call it air con, air conditioning or an air-to-air heat pump, it’s the job we do every week across Hampshire.
Homes around Ashlett usually have room outside for an outdoor unit. The questions are more often the age of the walls, the electrics and how far the pipes need to run.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

Let and managed properties
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
Your questions about air conditioning in Ashlett
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Ashlett?
It can, as Ashlett is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Will air conditioning in Ashlett need planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The Ashlett Creek Conservation Area is close to the centre of Ashlett. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that aren’t used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with the planning department at New Forest council, usually the authority for Ashlett.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always look before we price, either on a site survey or from pictures and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Does air conditioning need its own electrical supply?
Most of the time, yes: a dedicated circuit is needed. Under Part P, a new circuit has to be notified unless a registered competent person does it, and as NICEIC approved contractors we install and certify it as part of the job.
Which accreditations do you hold?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.
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. Sizing each room properly on the survey avoids both. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed price.
Why us?
- Diagnosis first, then a fixed price
- An F-Gas certified company, as the law requires
- A site survey and a fixed-price quote
- NICEIC approved for electrical work

What an install looks like in Ashlett
At about 1 mile from the coast, Ashlett is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air is hard on outdoor units, so we site them out of the worst of the sea wind where we can, and can suggest models with corrosion-protected coils where the manufacturer offers them. The last census (2021) found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split.
If your home is in one of the older streets near Church of All Saints, it’s worth checking whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before an install. About 4.7 miles west stands Beaulieu Palace House. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.
Ashlett is about 4 miles south-east of Hythe, in Hampshire. Homes and businesses alike in Ashlett, we can help with air conditioning.

How it works
You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we’ve done. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Ashlett.
- First comes a site survey, or photos and measurements for a straightforward job.
- We size the system for each room, then send a fixed-price quote with the units and where they go.
- Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
- Power is wired in, the joints are proved leak-tight under pressure and a vacuum pump draws out air and moisture.
- We commission the system, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty details.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
How to get a quote
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

“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.”
