Air con installers in Cranleigh
We install leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. We recommend a model on the survey and explain why it suits the room, and the manufacturer’s warranty terms are set out on your quote. For air conditioning in Cranleigh, one call covers the survey, the fixed-price quote, the installation and the F-Gas paperwork.
A single room takes a day in most homes, while multi-split systems for several rooms can take longer, and we leave the room clean and the controls explained.
Around Cranleigh, older cottages and newer houses can be very different to work on. Thick walls and beams mean planning the pipe route carefully, and if the home is listed, consent comes before any work.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

What we’re called out for in Cranleigh
Some people come to us for heating rather than cooling. Direct electric heaters convert electricity into heat one for one, while an air-to-air heat pump moves heat from outside, so it gives out more heat than the electricity it uses. That’s how most modern split systems work.
Customers usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- A system on old refrigerant that is due for replacement
- Portable units that are noisy and barely cope
- Uncertainty over the right type and size of system
A loft bedroom or a glazed extension is often the room that prompts the first call.

Common questions in Cranleigh
Can you do air conditioning in Cranleigh?
We do: Cranleigh falls inside our working area. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us with a few pictures.
Will air conditioning in Cranleigh need planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The Cranleigh Conservation Area is close to the centre of Cranleigh. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the local planning authority (for Cranleigh, typically Waverley council).
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and explain why.
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.

The process
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. Tell us about any gates or steps at your property near Cranleigh when you book.
- First comes a site survey, or pictures and measurements for a straightforward job.
- You receive one fixed figure covering the kit, the fitting and the positions we agreed.
- Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
- Power is wired in, the joints are proved leak-tight under pressure and a vacuum pump draws out air and moisture.
- The system is commissioned and checked in every mode, and we hand over the controls, F-Gas records and warranty information.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Tell us about parking and loading
Getting a price
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Different systems, different jobs
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
Offices and shops typically need several units and sensible central controls. Sizing takes account of occupants, equipment and windows, and plan the work so the business keeps running.
Ducted systems
Ducted units can feed several rooms through a network of ducts, which suits new builds, extensions and refurbishments where ceilings are open.
Before you call an engineer
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
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.
Air conditioning in Cranleigh: local notes
About 70% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split.
Homes near Church of St Nicholas are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.
Cranleigh is about 8 miles south-east of Guildford, in Surrey. From the centre of Cranleigh to the outskirts, we cover air conditioning, from a single room to a whole building. In Surrey alone we list 395 places and Cranleigh is among them. There’s also a page for Guildford, about 8 miles away.
A recent job in Cranleigh
High Street, Cranleigh (GU6)
- Property
- A converted Victorian schoolhouse now operating as a co-working space.
- Work carried out
- Installation of two Daikin wall-mounted units in the main working hall and a third unit in the meeting room. The high-ceilinged Victorian schoolroom required careful calculation of cooling capacity given the volume of the space. An oversized unit was specified to ensure adequate cooling on peak summer days.
- Outcome
- The co-working space operator reported that summer membership retention improved noticeably following installation, and that the space had become a preferred working environment for remote workers from nearby villages who had previously found it too warm in summer.

From one of our customers
“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.”
