Air conditioning in Farlington
Good air conditioning starts with the right system in the right place. We look at each room’s size, glazing, orientation and use, then agree where the indoor and outdoor units go and how the pipework, cable and condensate drain will run, all before the price is fixed. Whether you call it air con, air conditioning or an air-to-air heat pump, in Farlington it means the same thing to us: the right unit in the right place, fitted and commissioned properly.
In a place like Farlington, the outdoor unit often goes on the ground at the side or rear of the house, where it’s out of sight from the road and easy to service.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Air conditioning in Farlington: the local picture
Farlington lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Some manufacturers offer anti-corrosion coated coils for coastal sites, and we will tell you if the model you choose has that option. Historic England lists about 8 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Farlington, including Fort Purbrook (grade II*). If your property is listed or sits inside a conservation area, expect us to raise planning at the survey and to speak to Portsmouth council, typically the planning authority here where it’s needed. About 40% of homes in and around Farlington date from 1945 to 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the 2021 Census found about 69% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. We check the wall construction on homes of that age, as it decides how the pipework goes through. With homes like that, finding a sensible outdoor unit position is rarely hard, and a multi-split lets two or more rooms run off it.
Homes near Church of St Andrew are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it. About 2.9 miles east stands Warblington Castle. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.

Common questions in Farlington
Do you cover smaller places like Farlington?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Farlington?
It can. Farlington is within about 1 mile of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
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.
Which type of air conditioning is best?
Number of rooms, space outside and how much of the unit you want to see all decide it. Ducted systems need a ceiling void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling, which we check on the survey.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
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. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
What the work involves, system by system
Multi-split systems
A two-room multi-split is typically £2,800–£4,500 + VAT, and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT. The pipe routes to each room make the biggest difference to the price.
Electrical supply
The fuse board is looked at during the survey, so any extra electrical work is on the quote rather than a surprise on the day. Older boards sometimes need more work to take a new circuit and we’ll tell you if yours does.
How we price air conditioning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The size of the job
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- What state the existing equipment is in
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with the address and a few details about the rooms or units involved. A few photos make it quicker. You’ll hear back from us the same working day.

How it works
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. Seeing the property in pictures first helps us plan the trip to Farlington.
- We survey the rooms and the outside of the property, or work from pictures and details for simple jobs.
- Cooling loads are worked out room by room, and the written price names the make, the model and every position.
- The units go up and the pipework, cable and condensate drain are run neatly between them.
- We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
- Finally, it’s commissioned, tested in each mode and handed over with the F-Gas records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
