What we do, step by step
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. In a London area like Blendon, parking and access are worth sorting out before the day.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where necessary.
- Before it runs, the pipework is proved tight and put under vacuum.
- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working

Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Just call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk with photos of the rooms and the outside of the property, and we’ll reply the same working day to arrange a survey or a quote. Air conditioning installation in Blendon starts with a site survey, followed by a fixed-price quote with the brand, model and every part of the job set out.
London homes in Blendon can be short of outside space, which means a rear wall bracket, a flat roof or a balcony is often the best spot for the outdoor unit. We look at noise towards neighbours and windows as well as looks, and we plan the pipe route so it’s as short and tidy as the building allows.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

What we are called out for in Blendon
Many people try a portable unit first. A portable unit has to vent its warm air through a hose out of a window, which lets some heat back in, and its compressor sits in the room with you. With a split system, the compressor lives outside.
What we’re most often called about:
- Expensive direct electric heating
- A home office that warms up with screens and equipment
- Commercial rooms that are too warm for staff
With historic houses such as Danson House about 0.7 miles north, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules.
Comparing quotes
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards
- Whether the quote shows VAT clearly
Aftercare tips
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- File the paperwork with the manual
- Close windows and doors while the system is cooling
Questions after the installation go to the same number. Let us know what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll talk it through with you.
Give the outdoor unit room to breathe. Anything piled against it, from leaves to garden furniture, reduces the airflow, and the system has to work harder as a result.
Air conditioning in Blendon: local notes
Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 63% of homes across Blendon and its surrounding area date from 1919 to 1939. We check the wall construction on homes of that age, as it decides how the pipework goes through. London installs often hinge on outside space, the lease and access to the building.
Plenty of people near Albany Park station split the week between the train and a spare room, and that spare room is often the first to get a unit.

Why deal with it now?
If you’re thinking about air conditioning for a property in Blendon, there’s no need to wait for a heatwave. The installation takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access, and the date is agreed with you after you’ve accepted the fixed price. In London, hot spells can bring a rush of calls, so planning the work in Blendon before summer avoids the wait.
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Common questions in Blendon
Do you cover Blendon for air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Blendon is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Blendon?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The half-mile around the middle of Blendon holds about 4 listed buildings and structures. An air-to-air system used for heating as well as cooling can be permitted development on a house if it meets the conditions, but a cooling-only unit is not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with Bexley council, which is typically the planning authority for Blendon.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we will tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Which type of air conditioning is best?
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, which we check on the survey.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
