Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Charndon
We install leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons for it, along with the manufacturer’s warranty terms on your quote. A lot of the calls we get from Charndon are about one room that’s too hot to sleep or work in. That’s normally a single wall-mounted split, from £1,200 + VAT.
Homes around Charndon normally 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.
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

System by system
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
Offices and shops usually need several units and sensible central controls. Sizing takes account of occupants, equipment and windows and we plan the installation around your opening hours where we can.
Electrical supply
Most systems need their own circuit from the consumer unit. As NICEIC approved contractors, we install it and issue the certificate and that covers the Part P side.
Charndon questions
Can you do air conditioning in Charndon?
Yes, Charndon is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Will you come out to Charndon?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. 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’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Does air conditioning need its own electrical supply?
Typically, yes. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote, and our NICEIC approval covers the installation and certificate.
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
Not necessarily. On a house, air-to-water heat pumps and, since 2025, air-to-air systems that heat as well as cool can be permitted development if they meet the conditions. Permission is more likely to come up for cooling-only units, listed buildings, flats and road-facing positions in conservation areas and the survey picks it up. This is general information, not legal advice.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.

Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
If you look after several properties, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
Air conditioning in Charndon: local notes
About 32% of homes in the Charndon area have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and Census 2021 figures found about 79% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Newer homes normally have cavity walls and loft space that make pipe runs easier, though some estates have planning conditions or covenants worth checking. With homes like that, finding a sensible outdoor unit position is rarely hard, and a multi-split lets two or more rooms run off it. About 49 miles out from central London, Charndon is part of the South East area we work across.
Claydon House (roughly 3 miles east) shows the area has its share of heritage. A listed home needs consent before an outdoor unit or pipework goes on. Around Church of St Michael, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install.

What happens on the day
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 a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. Somewhere like Charndon, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
- Then the prescription: the right system and size for each room, on a fixed-price quote.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
