Air conditioning in Cuxton, done properly
A new system normally needs a dedicated circuit from the fuse board. Adding a new circuit is notifiable building work under Part P unless it’s done by a registered competent person, and as NICEIC approved contractors we can install and certify it as part of the job. Air con, air conditioning, a split system: whatever you call it, in Cuxton it means the same thing to us: the right unit in the right place, fitted and commissioned properly.
Around Cuxton, many people choose a system that heats as well as cools, which suits garden rooms, lofts and extensions that the main heating struggles with.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for instance, 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.

The process
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before we start, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can normally work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Cuxton.
- First comes a site survey, or photos and measurements for a straightforward job.
- Cooling loads are worked out room by room, and the written price names the make, the model and every position.
- The indoor unit is fixed in place, the outside unit positioned, and the connecting runs put in tidily.
- We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
- Last comes the run-up: every mode checked, the controls explained and the paperwork left with you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

Your questions about air conditioning in Cuxton
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Cuxton?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Historic England lists about 3 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Cuxton. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that are not used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with Medway council, which is typically the planning authority for Cuxton.
Can you do air conditioning in Cuxton?
Yes. Cuxton is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. 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 will work out which band applies to yours.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
How quickly will you reply?
You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Clean the filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
- Choose a comfortable set temperature rather than the lowest
- Never run the system with the filters out
Questions after the installation go to the same number. Let us know what’s happening and any error code and we will help you sort it out.
Book an annual service. The engineer cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small problems early and keeps the warranty paperwork right where servicing is a condition.

Do you need air conditioning in Cuxton?
Computers, screens, lighting and people all give off heat. A home office with a couple of screens, or a meeting room with a few people in it, warms up quickly, even on a mild day.
The things we are asked about most include:
- Uncertainty over the right type and size of system
- A room that is unbearable on warm days
- A portable unit with a hose out of the window
Homes near Church of St Michael and All Angels are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.
What your quote should include
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
