Medway · Air conditioning installation
Air con installers in Dunn Street
Air conditioning across Dunn Street and nearby, from a site survey or diagnosis to sign-off and a fixed price agreed before work begins.
- Rooms heated by plug-in heaters
- A portable unit with a hose out of the window
- An ageing air conditioning system near the end of its life
What air conditioning won’t do
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A room that cannot take an outdoor unit or pipe route without the landlord’s, management company’s or council’s consent (that consent comes first)
- Heat loss through very poor insulation (a system will heat the room, but insulation is a separate job)
- Building damp that has a structural cause

Air conditioning in Dunn Street, done properly
Single-room systems are typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, while a two-room multi-split is typically £2,800–£4,500 + VAT and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT. Those ranges include supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation, and commercial VRF systems are priced after a survey. Air conditioning installation in Dunn Street starts with a site survey, followed by a fixed-price quote with the brand, model and every part of the job set out.
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.
Homes around Dunn Street usually have room outside for an outdoor unit. The questions are more often the age of the walls, the electrics and how far the pipes need to run.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Air conditioning around Dunn Street
About 75% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split. Dunn Street is about 31 miles from central London, well within the area we cover from our base in East Grinstead.
Bedrooms under the roof and rooms with big sunny windows are typically the first to overheat, so they’re the usual place to start.

Before you call an engineer
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
What we are called out for in Dunn Street
Portable units are often where people start, and why they call us. A portable unit has to vent its warm air through a hose out of a window, which lets some heat back in, and its compressor sits in the room with you. With a split system, the compressor lives outside.
What we’re most often called about:
- A system on old refrigerant that’s due for replacement
- Too many options and no clear advice
- Rooms heated by plug-in heaters
Living close to Church of St Peter? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.
What your quote should include
- What records you get at the end
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
The process
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Dunn Street.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
- It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
Get a fixed-price quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

FAQs for Dunn Street
How do I get a quote for air conditioning in Dunn Street?
Start with a short message: the address, what you need and a picture or two. Straightforward work can be priced remotely. Bigger jobs get a survey and a written fixed price.
Is Dunn Street within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
It can do. The rules differ for heat pumps and cooling-only air conditioning, and for houses, flats, listed buildings and conservation areas. We flag anything that may need permission when we survey and the council makes the decision. This is general information, not legal advice.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Do I need a new electrical circuit?
Most systems need their own supply from the consumer unit. Under Part P, a new circuit has to be notified unless a registered competent person does it, and as NICEIC approved contractors we install and certify it as part of the job.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
What a customer said
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
