Air conditioning in Great Tew

Rented and managed buildings

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.

We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Oxfordshire. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building around the people who use them.

Air con installers in Great Tew

We install leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons for it, along with the manufacturer’s warranty terms on your quote. Air con, air conditioning, a split system: whatever you call it, in Great Tew it means the same thing to us: the right unit in the right place, fitted and commissioned properly.

Villages like Great Tew often have older houses and cottages, some of them listed. That matters, because a listed home needs consent and permitted development rules do not apply to it.

Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

When to call us in Great Tew

Many people try a portable unit first. Portables push their warm air out through a hose in the window, so the window can’t close properly and the noisy part of the unit is in the room. A fixed split system puts the compressor outside.

Reasons to give us a call include:

  • A business premises that overheats in summer
  • Fans and portables that do not keep up
  • Uncertainty over the right type and size of system

Around Church of St Michael and All Angels, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
  • Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved

Our hiring checklist

Questions from Great Tew

Will you come out to Great Tew?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

Is Great Tew in your area for air conditioning?

Yes. Great Tew is one of the places we cover. Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few details.

Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?

There’s no single best type. A split suits one room, a multi-split several, a ducted system hides the unit, and a cassette spreads air across larger rooms. We recommend one on the survey and explain why.

What does F-Gas certified mean?

For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes, on every job. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.

Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?

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, but a cooling-only unit isn’t covered, so check with the council. Listed buildings, conservation areas and flats have extra limits. This is general information, not legal advice.

Air conditioning around Great Tew

VOA council tax data put about 41% of homes in and around Great Tew before 1919, and Census 2021 figures found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Older properties often mean solid walls and period details, so pipe runs are planned to stay neat and out of sight. 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. The middle of Great Tew is part of the Great Tew Conservation Area. Historic England lists about 67 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Great Tew, including Church of St Michael and All Angels (grade I). Heritage protection changes what an install can involve, so the survey looks at your address first and tells you plainly whether consent is likely.

Most people start with the room that gets hottest, then add more rooms on a multi-split if needed.

How the visit works

Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. The visit takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. Somewhere like Great Tew, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.

  1. First comes a site survey, or photos and measurements for a straightforward job.
  2. Cooling loads are worked out room by room, and the written price names the make, the model and every position.
  3. The indoor unit is fixed in place, the outside unit positioned, and the connecting runs put in tidily.
  4. We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
  5. Last comes the run-up: every mode checked, the controls explained and the paperwork left with you.

Before we arrive

  • Clear access to the fuse board
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time

What air conditioning cannot fix

We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Gas boiler or central heating faults (we don’t work on gas boilers)

  • A building fabric problem such as single glazing or no loft insulation

If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 and we will say what we think.

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
