Air con installers in Farthing Street
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi are among the brands we fit. We recommend a model on the survey and explain why it suits the room, and the manufacturer’s warranty terms are set out on your quote. Most enquiries from Farthing Street start with one hot room: a bedroom, a home office or a loft conversion. A single-room split system is often the answer, from £1,200 + VAT.
In Farthing Street, as across London, the rooms that get hottest are normally under the roof or behind large sunny windows. Many people start with one wall-mounted unit in the room that suffers most, while a multi-split serves several rooms from one outdoor unit, which helps where outside space is limited.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what air conditioning will not do:
- An installation that needs consent nobody has given yet
- Draughts and missing insulation
- Damp or condensation caused by leaks or poor ventilation in the building (that needs the cause fixing)
If you are not sure, just phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- VRF systems

What we do, step by step
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Let us know who controls access to the building in Farthing Street, as that saves time on the day.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where necessary.
- Testing: the circuit is pressure tested and evacuated before the refrigerant is released.
- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
How to get a quote
Quotes don’t take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
Advice
How we price air conditioning
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.

Air conditioning in Farthing Street: local notes
London installs often hinge on outside space, the lease and access to the building.
Around St Mary's Church, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install. Down House, about 1 mile south, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it.

Questions from Farthing Street
Is Farthing Street in your area for air conditioning?
Yes. Farthing Street is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Farthing Street?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder normally have a say. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Can you fit air conditioning in a leasehold flat?
Often, yes, but there are extra steps. You’ll usually need the landlord’s or management company’s consent for the outdoor unit and the pipe route, so check the lease. Planning rules for flats are tighter too, and we flag anything that may need permission. This is general information, not legal advice.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. 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 can tell you which band your system falls into.
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
What happens if it’s left?
The best time to plan air conditioning is before the hot weather, not during it. When people buy in a hurry, the unit is often the wrong size or badly placed, which is costly to undo. A survey now gives time to choose properly. Getting the work done in Farthing Street before summer avoids the busiest weeks.
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.

From one of our customers
“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.”
