How we handle air conditioning in Bow Common

The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons for it, and the manufacturer’s warranty terms are set out on your quote. For air conditioning in Bow Common, you get one team and one number from survey to sign-off.
London homes in Bow Common 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. Neighbours’ windows and noise matter as much as appearance when we choose the position, and the pipe run is planned to be short, neat and out of the way.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler and it’s worth keeping safe.

Rented and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.

Common problems we fix in Bow Common
Portable units are often where people start, and why they call us. Portables push their warm air out through a hose in the window, so the window can’t close properly and the noisy part of the unit is in the room. With a split system, the compressor lives outside.
Common reasons people call us are:
- A business premises that overheats in summer
- A loft room or top floor that bakes in summer
- A room that is unbearable on warm days
Plenty of people near Limehouse station split the week between the train and a spare room, and that spare room is often the first to get a unit.

How the visit works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Send us a few phone pictures and we can often price a straightforward job in Bow Common before visiting.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where needed.
- 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
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Advice
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Questions from Bow Common
Do you cover Bow Common for air conditioning?
We do: Bow Common falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Bow Common?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. There’s a conservation area, the Limehouse Cut Conservation Area, close to central Bow Common. 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 necessary, we check with the planning department at Tower Hamlets council, normally the authority for Bow Common.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Bow Common and across Greater London. Let us know who the records should go to.
Which type of system should I choose?
There’s no single best type. Wall-mounted splits suit single rooms, multi-splits run several rooms from one outdoor unit, ducted systems hide the unit in the ceiling, and cassettes suit offices and larger rooms. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons.
How do I know what size unit to get?
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.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
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.
Air conditioning around Bow Common
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures show about 48% of homes across Bow Common and its surrounding area were built in 2000 or later, and Census 2021 figures found about 88% of households live in flats. Newer homes normally have cavity walls and loft space that make pipe runs easier, though some estates have planning conditions or covenants worth checking. For a flat, we look at balconies, flat roofs and rear walls for the outdoor unit, and the lease often needs checking first. For a London home, we plan the outdoor unit position, the pipe route and any approvals before the day.
Sutton House, about 2.4 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it.
