Common problems we fix in Cooling Street

Bedrooms that are too warm at night are a frequent reason for a call. An open window doesn’t always cool a bedroom that has warmed up all day, especially on a still night.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • A business premises that overheats in summer
  • A room that’s unbearable on warm days
  • Expensive direct electric heating

Older streets near St James' Church may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes.

Questions to ask before booking

How the job changes from property to property

Multi-split systems

A two-room multi-split is typically £2,800–£4,500 + VAT, and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT. The route from the outdoor unit to each room is the main variable.

Wall-mounted split systems

Single-room split systems are typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, including supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation. Long pipe runs, difficult access and a new circuit affect where your job sits in the range.

Air conditioning around Cooling Street

At about 3 miles from the coast, Cooling Street is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air is hard on outdoor units, so we site them out of the worst of the sea wind where we can, and can suggest models with corrosion-protected coils where the manufacturer offers them. About 75% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split.

About 3.9 miles south stands Temple Manor. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.

The process

Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, check the system and talk you through it. On site, the work takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Cooling Street easier.

  1. We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
  2. You receive one fixed figure covering the kit, the fitting and the positions we agreed.
  3. On the day, we fit the indoor and outdoor units and run the pipework, cable and condensate drain.
  4. Once the electrics are connected, the pipework is tested for leaks and put under vacuum before any refrigerant flows.
  5. The system is commissioned and checked in every mode, and we hand over the controls, F-Gas records and warranty information.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Common questions in Cooling Street

Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Cooling Street?

It can. Cooling Street is within about 3 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.

Will you come out to Cooling Street?

Yes. Cooling Street is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.

Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?

Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.

Will you make a mess?

Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.

Can you set up regular servicing?

Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.

Where will you put the outdoor unit?

The position is agreed on the survey, not on the day. It needs space around it to breathe and room for an engineer to service it, and a position facing a road can bring extra planning considerations. We explain the options and any permissions to check.

Safe owner checks

Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.

Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.

A customer’s words

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
