Looking after your system
After the visit, a few habits help:
- Never run the system with the filters out
- Wash or vacuum the filters as the manual describes
- Tell us if the unit starts to leak, rattle or show a code
If anything is not right after we’ve gone, call us on the same number. Tell us what the system is doing, and any code on the display, and we will talk it through with you.
Use sensible settings. A moderate set temperature cools the room just as well as the lowest one, without the waste, and close windows and doors while it’s cooling.

Air conditioning in Cookham Dean: local notes
About 73% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. 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.
Living close to Church of St John the Baptist? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is. With historic houses such as Cliveden about 2.5 miles east, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules.

Cookham Dean: your questions answered
Is Cookham Dean within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Can I fit air conditioning in Cookham Dean without planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The centre of Cookham Dean is in 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 is not allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Windsor and Maidenhead council, which is typically the planning authority for Cookham Dean.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Does air conditioning work as heating?
In most cases, yes: modern splits are normally heat pumps, so they can heat a room in winter. The Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.
Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?
Number of rooms, space outside and how much of the unit you want to see all decide it. Ducted systems need a ceiling void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling, which we check on the survey.
Do you work on all makes?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.

The process
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit 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 Cookham Dean.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
- We run and connect the pipes, cable and drain, then pressure test and evacuate the circuit.
- It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

What affects the cost of air conditioning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- How easy the units are to reach
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
Before you get in touch
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us.
