About our air conditioning in Great Kimble
Most air conditioning needs its own electrical supply from the consumer unit. Under Part P, a new circuit is notifiable unless a registered competent person does it, and as NICEIC approved contractors we can install and certify it as part of the job. Air con, air conditioning, a split system: whatever you call it, it’s the job we do every week across Buckinghamshire.
Around Great Kimble, many people choose a system that heats as well as cools, which suits rooms the main heating does not reach well, such as a garden room or loft.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

What owners can safely do
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Homes in Great Kimble and air conditioning
About 47% of homes in the Great Kimble area date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data, and about 71% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Homes of that age normally have cavity or solid brick walls, and we check which before planning the pipe route. 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.
Around Church of St Nicholas, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install.

Your questions about air conditioning in Great Kimble
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Great Kimble?
It depends on the property. The half-mile around the middle of Great Kimble holds about 7 listed buildings and structures. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof isn’t allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask the planning department at Buckinghamshire council, usually the authority for Great Kimble.
Is Great Kimble within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
How long does it take to fit air conditioning?
It takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. We confirm the time when we quote so there are no surprises.
Can I do any of the installation 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.
Which type of system should I choose?
There’s no single best type. Wall-mounted splits suit single rooms, multi-splits run several rooms from one outdoor unit, ducted systems hide the unit in the ceiling, and cassettes suit offices and larger rooms. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons.
When will I hear back?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Work in Great Kimble is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- Each room is sized and the unit positions agreed, then you get a fixed-price quote.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.

Related advice
When to call us in Great Kimble
Commercial spaces gain heat from people, equipment, lighting and glazing. Comfortable staff and customers are the usual reason businesses get in touch, and some rooms need cooling for the equipment as much as the people.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- Expensive direct electric heating
- An ageing air conditioning system near the end of its life
- A loft conversion that’s too warm to use
If you work from home near Little Kimble station, a home office that overheats is one of the easiest rooms to cool.
What your quote should include
- Whether the quote is a fixed price
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards
When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by air conditioning, and we’ll tell you before we start. It will not put right:
- Stuffy rooms that need fresh air rather than cooling
- Problems with a gas boiler or the radiators
- Damp from leaks or a lack of ventilation
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.

“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.”
