Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Ashurst
Most air conditioning needs its own electrical supply from the consumer unit. Under Part P, a new circuit is notifiable unless a registered competent person does it, and as NICEIC approved contractors we can install and certify it as part of the job. A lot of the calls we get from Ashurst are about one room that is too hot to sleep or work in. That’s typically a single wall-mounted split, from £1,200 + VAT.
In a village like Ashurst, many homes are older, and some are listed. We check that first, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Kent. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building around the people who use them.
If you look after several properties, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.

Do you need air conditioning in Ashurst?
Rooms overheat mostly because of heat they gain during the day. Sunshine through glazing, especially on south and west-facing rooms, adds a lot of heat, and the heat lingers long after the sun has moved round.
What we’re most often called about:
- A room that’s unbearable on warm days
- Rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night
- Too many options and no clear advice
Older streets near Church of St Martin of Tours may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes.

What an install looks like in Ashurst

Plenty of people near Ashurst Kent station split the week between the train and a spare room, and that spare room is often the first to get a unit.

What happens on the day
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, it takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Ashurst.
- 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.
- We protect the area, then fit both halves of the system.
- Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.
Before we arrive

Advice
Ashurst questions
Can I fit air conditioning in Ashurst without planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central Ashurst sits inside a conservation area. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof isn’t allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Wealden council, which is usually the planning authority for Ashurst.
Is Ashurst in your area for air conditioning?
Yes. Ashurst is one of the places we cover. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 or email us with a few photos.
How do you size the system?
It depends on the room, not only its floor area. Glazing, orientation, the roof and what goes on in the room all affect it, and we take them all into account on the survey.
Will you make a mess?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before we start, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Typically, yes. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote and we install and certify the circuit as NICEIC approved contractors.
What happens if it’s left?
Where the outdoor unit goes matters to you and to the neighbours. A good position keeps noise down and leaves room for servicing, and it can affect whether planning permission is needed. We agree it with you on the survey. For a village like Ashurst, booking ahead lets us plan the trip properly.
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 are not sure what’s needed, ring 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.
