Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Havering-atte-Bower
Any installation we do in Havering-atte-Bower follows the same process as everywhere else we work: survey, fixed-price quote, a neat installation, full commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork. You know the price before any work starts and the paperwork is in your hands when we finish. Every installation in Havering-atte-Bower begins with a look at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go, then a fixed-price quote that names the make and model.
Sizing is where cheap installs go wrong: the survey covers room size, glazing, insulation and how the room is used, so the unit isn’t too big or too small.
Space outside is rarely the problem in a place like Havering-atte-Bower. The questions are more often the age of the walls, the electrics and how far the pipes need to run.
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. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

What else we do in Havering-atte-Bower
How the visit works
You do not need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Somewhere like Havering-atte-Bower, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- We survey the property, or work from your pictures for a simple job.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- We run and connect the pipes, cable and drain, then pressure test and evacuate the circuit.
- It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area

When to call us in Havering-atte-Bower
Rooms overheat mostly because of heat they gain during the day. Sunshine through glazing, especially on south and west-facing rooms, adds a lot of heat, and the heat lingers long after the sun has moved round.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- Not knowing which system, size or brand to choose
- A business premises that overheats in summer
- Old electric heaters you’d like to replace with something more efficient
Living close to Church of St John the Evangelist? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.
Before you book anyone

- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it

Common questions in Havering-atte-Bower
Will air conditioning in Havering-atte-Bower need planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Havering-atte-Bower is a short walk from the Havering-atte-Bower Conservation Area. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the planning department at Havering council, usually the authority for Havering-atte-Bower.
Do you cover smaller places like Havering-atte-Bower?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need and the fixed price is built on it.
How do I know what size unit to get?
We size each room on the survey, from its size, glazing, orientation and use. An undersized unit never catches up, and an oversized one cycles and wastes energy, so we explain why we’ve chosen a particular output.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
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 electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Which brands do you work with?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
Why it’s worth doing now in Havering-atte-Bower
