Air conditioning in Deptford
Any installation we do in Deptford follows the same process as everywhere else we work: survey, fixed-price quote, a neat installation, full commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork. You know the price before we start and the paperwork is in your hands when we finish. For air conditioning in Deptford, one call covers the survey, the fixed-price quote, the installation and the F-Gas paperwork.
Where the outdoor unit goes decides how quiet and tidy the job is: airflow, noise towards neighbours, pipe length and access for servicing all count.
Top-floor flats and rooms with big south- or west-facing windows tend to be the first to overheat in London. A single wall-mounted unit in the worst room is often where people start, and a multi-split can cover more rooms from one outdoor unit where space outside is short.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

For landlords and property managers
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed-price quote.
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
The process
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. If your building in Deptford has a managing agent, a concierge or sign-in rules, mention them when you book.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where needed.
- Testing: the circuit is pressure tested and evacuated before the refrigerant is released.
- Finally, the clean bill of health: commissioning, the controls explained and your paperwork handed over.
How to prepare
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Let us know where the consumer unit is

Air conditioning around Deptford
About 34% of homes across Deptford and its surrounding area have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and about 79% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). Newer homes are often easier to fit, with cavity walls and space in the loft for pipework. For a flat, we look at balconies, flat roofs and rear walls for the outdoor unit, and the lease often needs checking first. For a London home, we plan the outdoor unit position, the pipe route and any approvals before the day.
Around St. Paul's, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install. If you commute from Deptford station and work from home on other days, one wall-mounted unit in the home office is often all that’s needed.
Deptford is about 3 miles south-east of Whitechapel, in Greater London. From the centre of Deptford to the outskirts, our engineers cover air conditioning, from small jobs to large ones. Our Greater London coverage runs to 764 places, and Deptford is one of them.
Not far from Deptford, a recent job of ours was on Greenwich High Road, Greenwich (SE10), about 1 mile east: installing a Mitsubishi Electric wall-mounted unit in the retail area and a second unit in the stockroom and office. More about it

Deptford: your questions answered
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Deptford?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Can you do air conditioning in Deptford?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Deptford is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
How soon will you get back to me?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that can’t wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Can air conditioning heat my home as well?
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.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Most of the time, yes: a dedicated circuit is needed. Adding a new circuit is notifiable building work under Part P unless it’s done by a registered competent person, and we are NICEIC approved, so we can install and certify it.
What happens if it’s left?
The outdoor unit’s position is worth getting right first time. Placing it well keeps noise away from bedrooms and boundaries and makes servicing easier, and it can make a difference to planning. It’s agreed on the survey, not on the day. In a London building, getting the freeholder’s or agent’s agreement can take a while, so it’s worth starting early.
No two properties are the same, so we price each one individually. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Book an annual service
- File the paperwork with the manual
- Use moderate settings for comfort and economy
The handover includes the records you need: the commissioning details, the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information. Keep them with the manual, because the manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.
Have the system serviced once a year. A service cleans what you can’t reach and picks up faults before they stop the system, and it keeps any warranty servicing conditions in order.
