Air con installers in Jacob's Post
A single-room split system is typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, two rooms on a multi-split £2,800–£4,500 + VAT, and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT. Supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation are all included, with commercial and VRF systems priced after a survey. People searching for “air con near me” in Jacob's Post want two things: a sensible price and someone qualified. We publish typical prices and do the refrigerant work as an F-Gas certified company.
The outdoor unit position is the biggest single decision: we balance airflow, noise, the pipe run and access for future servicing.
In a village like Jacob's Post, many homes are older, and some are listed. That matters, because a listed home needs consent and permitted development rules do not apply to it.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Jacob's Post questions
Do you cover Jacob's Post for air conditioning?
We do: Jacob's Post falls inside our working area. To start, phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few photos.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Jacob's Post?
It depends on the property. There’s a conservation area, the Fairfield Conservation Area, close to central Jacob's Post. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof is not allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Mid Sussex council, which is usually the planning authority for Jacob's Post.
How much does air conditioning installation cost?
It depends on the rooms, the system and the pipe route, but a single-room split is typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT. Long pipe runs, difficult access, a new circuit and premium indoor units push the price up, while commercial systems are priced after a survey.
Do I need a new electrical circuit?
Typically, yes. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote, and our NICEIC approval covers the installation and certificate.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
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 new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- File the paperwork with the manual
- Wash or vacuum the filters as the manual describes
- Choose a comfortable set temperature rather than the lowest
We recommend an annual service, and some manufacturers make servicing a warranty condition. We can remind you when it’s due, so it doesn’t get forgotten.
Have the system serviced once a year. The engineer cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small problems early and keeps the warranty paperwork right where servicing is a condition.
How it works
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Jacob's Post.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- Each room is sized and the unit positions agreed, then you get a fixed-price quote.
- On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
- Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
- It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is straightforward. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

How we price air conditioning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- How many units are involved
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
One room or a whole building, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You will have a fixed price before we start, with VAT shown clearly.
Helping us quote
Good pictures often save a visit. The most useful are:
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The address and the type of property
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
When something else is needed
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Work that needs permission from a landlord or the council
- A building fabric problem such as single glazing or no loft insulation
- Problems with a gas boiler or the radiators
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 and we’ll say what we think.
