Air conditioning in Crawley
Wall-mounted, multi-split, ducted and cassette systems are all part of what we install, plus VRF systems for bigger commercial buildings. The right choice depends on the rooms, the building and how visible you want the indoor units to be, and we explain the options on the survey. Need an air conditioning installer for Crawley? We are based in East Grinstead and cover London and the South East, as an F-Gas certified company with NICEIC approval.
Planning permission is not usually needed for a house if the unit qualifies as permitted development, but listed buildings, conservation areas and flats often need consent first: we tell you at the survey if it applies.
For a home in or near Crawley, an air-to-air system can cool in summer and heat in the cooler months, which suits garden rooms, lofts and extensions that the main heating struggles with.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. The work itself takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Crawley.
- We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
- You receive one fixed figure covering the kit, the fitting and the positions we agreed.
- On the day, we fit the indoor and outdoor units and run the pipework, cable and condensate drain.
- Power is wired in, the joints are proved leak-tight under pressure and a vacuum pump draws out air and moisture.
- We commission the system, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty details.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Let us know where the consumer unit is

FAQs for Crawley
Will you come out to Crawley?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is air conditioning in Crawley permitted development?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Crawley is a short walk from the Crawley Conservation Area. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to Winchester City council, which is typically the planning authority for Crawley when it matters.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Typically, yes. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote and we install and certify the circuit as NICEIC approved contractors.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some brands make regular servicing a condition so it’s worth keeping the service records.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat?
In many cases, but permissions come first. Leaseholders normally need consent from the landlord or management company for an outdoor unit and holes through outside walls and the lease will say. Planning rules for flats are tighter too, and we flag anything that may need permission. This is general information, not legal advice.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Crawley
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Every visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we will keep everyone informed.
Why it’s worth doing now in Crawley
Fans and portables move warm air around rather than removing it. A fixed system removes the heat to the outside, runs more quietly in the room and can usually heat as well, so it earns its keep all year. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
What you pay depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, how easy the units are to reach and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What an install looks like in Crawley
About 75% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Houses normally have a side or rear wall with room for the outdoor unit, and a multi-split can serve several rooms from one outdoor unit.
Bedrooms under the roof and rooms with big sunny windows are normally the first to overheat, so they’re the usual place to start. Older streets near Church of St Mary may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes.

What affects the quote in Crawley
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- The brand, model and parts involved
- A single visit or a regular plan
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
