Air con installers in Dunton

Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Send a few photos of the rooms and the outside walls when you call 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form, and you will hear back from us the same working day to arrange a survey or a quote. Most split systems we fit in Dunton are reversible: in heating mode they work as an air-to-air heat pump, which is why many owners use theirs all year.

Around Dunton, many people choose a system that heats as well as cools, which suits garden rooms, lofts and extensions that the main heating struggles with.

Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Common problems we fix in Dunton

Portable units are often where people start, and why they call us. Portables push their warm air out through a hose in the window, so the window cannot close properly and the noisy part of the unit is in the room. With a split system, the compressor lives outside.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Not knowing which system, size or brand to choose
  • Rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night
  • Expensive direct electric heating

Homes near Church of St Martin are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
  • Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
  • Proof of F-Gas company certification

Choosing an air con installer

What the work involves, system by system

Ducted systems

With a ducted system, the indoor unit sits out of sight above the ceiling, with only neat grilles showing in the room. It suits rooms where a visible unit wouldn’t work.

Offices, shops and commercial rooms

Systems over 12 kW of effective rated output bring extra duties for the building, including a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange and prepare for it.

Pricing air conditioning in Dunton

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:

  • The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
  • The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
  • Whether the existing supply is suitable

Typical ranges are on our prices page, but your price depends on the job in front of us. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we will explain what it covers.

What we need to know

You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:

  • Wide pictures of the room or the existing unit
  • Any error code or flashing light on the display
  • The make and model of the system, from the label

Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. 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 fill in the contact form.

Dunton questions

Is Dunton within the area you cover?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Dunton?

That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Around 6 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Dunton. 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 the local planning authority (for Dunton, normally Buckinghamshire council) when it matters.

How does the warranty work?

It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.

Does servicing affect my warranty?

It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.

Which accreditations do you hold?

F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

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’ll work out which band applies to yours.

Do I need a new electrical circuit?

Most of the time. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote, and our NICEIC approval covers the installation and certificate.

Air conditioning in Dunton: local notes

About 30% of homes in Dunton and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the 2021 Census found about 84% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Newer homes are often easier to fit, with cavity walls and space in the loft for pipework. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split.

About 4.4 miles east stands Ascott House. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.

How the visit works

Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Dunton.

  1. We survey the property, or work from your pictures for a simple job.
  2. Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
  3. On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
  4. Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
  5. The system is commissioned, the controls explained and the F-Gas records handed over.

How to prepare

  • Let us know where the consumer unit is
  • Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them

“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
