Homes around Highcliffe are mostly houses, many with gardens, which normally leaves room for an outdoor unit. The wall type and how the electrics reach the unit are often the main things to check.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Signs you need air conditioning in Highcliffe
Bedrooms that are too warm at night are a frequent reason for a call. Once a bedroom has soaked up heat during the day, opening a window may not bring the temperature down far enough, particularly when there’s no breeze.
What we are most often called about:
- Commercial rooms that are too warm for staff
- Not knowing which system, size or brand to choose
- An ageing air conditioning system near the end of its life
Older streets near All Saints may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes.
Before booking anyone
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
- Whether extra work needs your approval first
- Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
What affects the cost of air conditioning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of system it is
- What state the existing equipment is in
- What electrical work the job needs
One room or a whole building, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before work begins, and the quote sets out the VAT.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.
Questions from Highcliffe
Can I fit air conditioning in Highcliffe without planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. There’s a conservation area, the Winchester Conservation Area, close to central Highcliffe. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that aren’t used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with the local planning authority (for Highcliffe, normally Winchester City council).
Do you cover smaller places like Highcliffe?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?
It depends on the rooms and the building. 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. We recommend one on the survey and explain why.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some brands make regular servicing a condition so it’s worth keeping the service records.
How long does it take to fit air conditioning?
Allow anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. We confirm the time when we quote so there are no surprises.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and explain why.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.

For landlords and property managers
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
The process
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. 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. Tell us about any gates or steps at your property near Highcliffe when you book.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Advice
From one of our customers
“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.”
