About our air conditioning in Felderland
Air conditioning is not only for summer: most modern splits heat too. The Energy Saving Trust makes the same point: an air-to-air heat pump is what many people simply call air conditioning, so a well-chosen unit can be useful in winter as well as summer. Modern air conditioning heats as well as cools: in heating mode they work as an air-to-air heat pump, so a system bought for summer earns its keep in winter too.
Planning permission isn’t usually needed for a house if the unit qualifies as permitted development, but listed buildings, conservation areas and flats often need consent first: we tell you at the survey if it applies.
Around Felderland, many people choose a system that heats as well as cools, which suits rooms the main heating doesn’t reach well, such as a garden room or loft.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Felderland.
- 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.
- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it

Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

Signs you need air conditioning in Felderland
Rooms in the roof are often the hardest to keep cool. Heat comes in through the roof and rises from the rest of the building, which is why a loft bedroom can still be warm at bedtime.
Common reasons people call us are:
- A business premises that overheats in summer
- Not knowing which system, size or brand to choose
- Rooms that get too hot to sleep or work in
With historic houses such as Goodnestone Park about 4.7 miles west, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules.

- An installation that needs consent nobody has given yet
- Building damp that has a structural cause

Common questions in Felderland
Is air conditioning in Felderland permitted development?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Felderland sits inside a conservation area. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact Dover council, which is normally the planning authority for Felderland.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Felderland?
It can. Felderland is within about 3 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Can air conditioning heat my home as well?
Yes, most modern split systems run as heat pumps, so they heat as well as cool. The Energy Saving Trust points out that an air-to-air heat pump is often just called air conditioning. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Most systems need their own supply from the consumer unit. Adding a new circuit is notifiable building work under Part P unless it’s done by a registered competent person, and we’re NICEIC approved, so we can install and certify it.
Which type of system should I choose?
Number of rooms, space outside and how much of the unit you want to see all decide it. Ducted units need a void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling and the survey confirms what’s possible.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We’re also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
What an install looks like in Felderland
The coast is only about 3 miles from Felderland. Salt air is hard on outdoor units, so we site them out of the worst of the sea wind where we can, and can suggest models with corrosion-protected coils where the manufacturer offers them. The 2021 Census found about 66% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split.

What the work involves, system by system
Ceiling cassettes

Ducted systems
Ducted units can feed several rooms through a network of ducts, which suits new builds, extensions and refurbishments where ceilings are open.
