In a London area like Hampton Wick, many of the homes we’re asked about are flats, maisonettes and terraced houses. That shapes the job: where the outdoor unit can go, how the pipework reaches it and who needs to agree first. A freeholder or managing agent often has a say in a flat, and we can give you the details they’ll ask for.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Homes in Hampton Wick and air conditioning
About 37% of homes across Hampton Wick and its surrounding area were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 54% of households live in flats, according to the 2021 Census. Older homes often have solid walls, which take longer to core drill, so we plan pipe routes carefully and keep them as discreet as we can. In flats, the lease and the freeholder normally decide where an outdoor unit can go, and the permitted development rules for flats are tighter. For a London home, we plan the outdoor unit position, the pipe route and any approvals before the day.
If your home is in one of the older streets near All Saints Church, it’s worth checking whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before an install. Close to Hampton Wick station? A small study or box room used for work can usually be cooled with a single indoor unit.

For landlords and property managers
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
How the job changes from property to property
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
Offices and shops usually need several units and sensible central controls. Sizing takes account of occupants, equipment and windows, and plan the work so the business keeps running.
Outdoor unit positions
Where outside space is tight, the outdoor unit position shapes the whole design. Every option is checked on the survey and we flag any consent you may need.
Common questions in Hampton Wick
Will air conditioning in Hampton Wick need planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. There’s a conservation area, the Hampton Wick Conservation Area, close to central Hampton Wick. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to the planning department at Kingston-Upon-Thames council, normally the authority for Hampton Wick when it matters.
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Hampton Wick?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder usually have a say. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
How does the warranty work?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some brands make regular servicing a condition so it’s worth keeping the service records.
Do you work in Hampton Wick?
Yes. We cover Hampton Wick and across Greater London, as part of our area across London and the South East. For a fixed-price quote, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
What happens if it’s left?
For homeowners, timing can matter for VAT: installing energy-saving materials in residential accommodation is zero-rated until 31 March 2027, then 5%. HMRC says most air conditioning units are air source heat pumps, but each case depends on the facts and we confirm the VAT on your quote. This is general information, not tax advice. Allow time for any approvals your building in Hampton Wick needs.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring us on 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.

The process
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. Send us a few phone photos and we can often price a straightforward job in Hampton Wick before visiting.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- The system is sized, positions are agreed and the price is fixed.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
- The system is commissioned, the controls explained and the F-Gas records handed over.
Before we arrive
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
