For landlords and property managers
If you look after several properties, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Every visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Fox
Across Fox, every installation follows the same steps: survey, fixed-price quote, a neat installation, full commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork. The price is fixed up front and the records are handed over at the end. Air conditioning installation in Fox starts with a site survey, then a fixed-price quote that names the make and model.
Most installations here are a wall-mounted indoor unit, a short pipe run through the wall and an outdoor unit on the back or side of the property, with the condensate drained away safely.
Space outside is rarely the problem in a place like Fox. The questions are more often the age of the walls, the electrics and how far the pipes need to run.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Air conditioning around Fox
Fox’s centre falls inside the Amport and Monxton Conservation Area. That matters for air conditioning: permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, and a unit used only for cooling isn’t covered at all, so we check with the local planning authority (typically Test Valley council) where necessary. About 81% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. 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.
Living close to Church of St Mary? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.

The process
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Fox so we arrive with what’s needed.
- First comes a site survey, or photos and measurements for a straightforward job.
- We size the system for each room, then send a fixed-price quote with the units and where they go.
- The indoor unit is fixed in place, the outside unit positioned, and the connecting runs put in tidily.
- Once the electrics are connected, the pipework is tested for leaks and put under vacuum before any refrigerant flows.
- Last comes the run-up: every mode checked, the controls explained and the paperwork left with you.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Clear access to the fuse board

Common questions in Fox
Is Fox within the area you cover?
Yes. Fox is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Do you cover Fox for air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Fox is part of that. To start, phone 07833 053749 or send an email with a few photos.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For simple jobs, photos and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
What warranty do I get?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Do I need planning permission?
It depends on the system and the property. In England, an air source heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets set conditions, including the MCS 020(a) noise check, while a unit that only cools isn’t covered and needs checking with the council. Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas have tighter rules. This is general information, not legal advice.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Different systems, different jobs
Ducted systems
Ducted systems need space for the unit and the ductwork plus an access hatch for maintenance. We check that on the survey before recommending one.
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
Commercial rooms often need more than one unit and controls that suit how the space is used. Sizing takes account of occupants, equipment and windows, and plan the work so the business keeps running.
Signs you need air conditioning in Fox
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.
It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:
- Fans and portables that do not keep up
- Too many options and no clear advice
- Rooms heated by plug-in heaters
Starting with one room is common, and the outdoor unit can be chosen with more rooms in mind.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included

“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.”
