Homes around Kemsley Street normally have room outside for an outdoor unit. The questions are more often the age of the walls, the electrics and how far the pipes need to run.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Central heating repairs
- Draughts and missing insulation
- A room that can’t take an outdoor unit or pipe route without the landlord’s, management company’s or council’s consent (that consent comes first)
If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 and we will say what we think.

Common questions in Kemsley Street
Is air conditioning in Kemsley Street permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The half-mile around the middle of Kemsley Street holds about 9 listed buildings and structures. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t 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 the local planning authority (for Kemsley Street, typically Medway council).
Is Kemsley Street within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can the outdoor unit go on a roof or at ground level?
Wall brackets, ground level and flat roofs are all options, chosen for the pipe route, airflow and access. Noise near bedrooms and boundaries is part of the decision and position can affect planning.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
When will I hear back?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Can you fit air conditioning in a leasehold flat?
Often, yes, but there are extra steps. Leaseholders normally need consent from the landlord or management company for an outdoor unit and holes through outside walls and the lease will say. Permitted development rules for flats are also tighter than for houses, and we flag anything that may need permission. This is general information, not legal advice.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
How it works
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system, and we clear up before we go. Visits to Kemsley Street are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
- You receive one fixed figure covering the kit, the fitting and the positions we agreed.
- Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
- We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
- Finally, it’s commissioned, tested in each mode and handed over with the F-Gas records.
How to prepare
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Clear access to the fuse board

Air conditioning in Kemsley Street: local notes
About 65% of homes in the Kemsley Street area date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data, and about 49% of households live in terraced houses, according to Census 2021 figures. We check the wall construction on homes of that age, as it decides how the pipework goes through. With a terrace, the back wall or an extension roof is typically the best place for the outdoor unit.
Starting with one room is common, and the outdoor unit can be chosen with more rooms in mind. Around Church of St Peter, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kemsley Street
New systems now use lower-impact refrigerants. From 2025, single splits under 3 kg cannot use refrigerants with a GWP over 750, so new splits use refrigerants such as R32, with a GWP of 675. R410A, used in many older systems, has a GWP of 2088. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
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 are unsure, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.
