How we handle air conditioning in Funtington
Any installation we do in Funtington follows the same process as everywhere else we work: a site survey, or pictures for simple jobs, then a fixed-price quote, the installation, commissioning and F-Gas records. The price is fixed up front and the records are handed over at the end. A lot of the calls we get from Funtington are about one room that’s too hot to sleep or work in. That is typically a single wall-mounted split, from £1,200 + VAT.
A single room takes a day in most homes, with multi-room systems taking longer depending on pipe routes, and we leave the room clean and the controls explained.
For a home in or near Funtington, an air-to-air system can cool in summer and heat in the cooler months, which suits garden rooms, lofts and extensions that the main heating struggles with.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

The process
Each visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, test what we have done and talk you through it. On site, the work takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Somewhere like Funtington, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
- Then the prescription: the right system and size for each room, on a fixed-price quote.
- The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
Getting a quote
Getting a quote is straightforward. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

Funtington questions
Will air conditioning in Funtington need planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. There’s a conservation area, the Funtington Conservation Area, close to central Funtington. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that are not used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (for Funtington, normally Chichester council).
Do you cover Funtington for air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Funtington is part of that. To start, phone 07833 053749 or send an email with a few photos.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Typically, yes. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote and we install and certify the circuit as NICEIC approved contractors.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Air conditioning around Funtington
About 76% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Detached and semi-detached houses usually have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split.
West Dean House, about 4.6 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it. Around The Parish Church of St Mary, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install.

What owners can safely do
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call 07833 053749.
How we price air conditioning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- How many units are involved
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- The condition of any existing system
Our prices page shows typical ranges, but your price depends on the job in front of us. For a fixed-price quote, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk, and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- Your installation or service records
- The make and model of the system, from the label
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
