How we handle air conditioning in Hurst Wickham
A new system normally needs a dedicated circuit from the fuse board. Adding a new circuit is notifiable building work under Part P unless it’s done by a registered competent person, and as NICEIC approved contractors we can install and certify it as part of the job. Modern air conditioning heats as well as cools: the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes called air conditioning, so a system bought for summer earns its keep in winter too.
Villages like Hurst Wickham often have older houses and cottages, some of them listed. That matters, because a listed home needs consent and permitted development rules don’t apply to it, and the outdoor unit position is chosen to suit the building.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler and it’s worth keeping safe.

The process
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Hurst Wickham.
- We survey the rooms and the outside of the property, or work from pictures and details for simple jobs.
- The quote is fixed and shows the equipment, where each unit goes and what’s included.
- On the day, we fit the indoor and outdoor units and run the pipework, cable and condensate drain.
- Once the electrics are connected, the pipework is tested for leaks and put under vacuum before any refrigerant flows.
- The system is commissioned and checked in every mode, and we hand over the controls, F-Gas records and warranty information.
Preparing for the visit
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from photos and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.

Air conditioning in Hurst Wickham: local notes
Hurst Wickham’s centre is no more than about a third of a mile from the Hurst Wickham Conservation Area. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Hurst Wickham and it takes in 2 conservation areas. Littlepark Farmhouse, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 12 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Hurst Wickham’s centre. Heritage protection changes what an install can involve, so the survey looks at your address first and tells you plainly whether consent is likely. About 74% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. A side passage or back wall normally gives the outdoor unit a home, and more than one bedroom can be cooled through a multi-split.
About 5 miles north stands Ockenden Manor. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one. Homes near Church of St George are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.

What affects the quote in Hurst Wickham
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- The size of the job
- What state the existing equipment is in
No two properties are the same, so we price each one individually. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.

Hurst Wickham questions
Will you come out to Hurst Wickham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Do you cover Hurst Wickham for air conditioning?
Yes. Hurst Wickham is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that can’t wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Do you work on all makes?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Can air conditioning heat my home as well?
Yes, most modern split systems run as heat pumps, so they heat as well as cool. The Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. Some cooling-only models exist, so we confirm it for the model on your quote.
What size air conditioning unit do I need?
Floor area is only part of it. Windows, the direction the room faces, the roof above and the people and equipment in it all count, and we take them all into account on the survey.
Are you F-Gas certified?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
What air conditioning can’t fix
Air conditioning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Damp or condensation caused by leaks or poor ventilation in the building (that needs the cause fixing)
- A ventilation problem rather than a temperature problem
- Work that needs permission from a landlord or the council
If in doubt, give us a ring on 07833 053749 and we’ll say what we think.
