Air conditioning in Lancing

Thinking about air conditioning but not sure where to start? Just ring 07833 053749 with photos of the rooms and the outside of the property, and we will reply the same working day to arrange a survey or a quote. Looking for air con installers near Lancing? AirCon Doctor works across London and the South East from East Grinstead, as an F-Gas certified company with NICEIC approval.

New circuits are done by our NICEIC approved electricians, so there’s no separate electrician or building control visit to arrange.

A cottage and a newer house near Lancing are very different jobs. Thick walls and beams mean planning the pipe route carefully, and a listed home needs consent before anything is fixed to it.

Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

Pricing air conditioning in Lancing

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
  • One-off work versus a regular service cycle
  • How far the pipework has to run, and where

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Before you get in touch

What to send for a quote:

  • Where the property is and what kind of building it is
  • The rating plate or label on any existing unit
  • Your consumer unit or fuse board

If you need air conditioning in Lancing, call 07833 053749 or email us. Tell us what kind of property it is and what you’d like done, and send a few pictures if you can. We reply the same working day.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Lancing

We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings in Lancing and across West Sussex. Larger buildings can be done in stages to keep disruption down.

Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

What we do, step by step

We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. A few pictures let us plan a visit to a place like Lancing.

  1. You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
  2. The system is sized, positions are agreed and the price is fixed.
  3. On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
  4. We run and connect the pipes, cable and drain, then pressure test and evacuate the circuit.
  5. The system is commissioned, the controls explained and the F-Gas records handed over.

Preparing for the visit

  • Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
  • Tell us about parking and loading

Ask for a quote

Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

How the job changes from property to property

Offices, shops and commercial rooms

Commercial rooms often need more than one unit and controls that suit how the space is used. We size for the people, equipment and glazing in the space and we plan the installation around your opening hours where we can.

Ducted systems

One ducted unit can serve more than one room through separate ducts and grilles, and they’re easiest to fit while ceilings are open, such as during a refurbishment.

Air conditioning around Lancing

Lancing is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the sea, outdoor unit position matters more: sheltered from salt-laden wind where possible, on fixings that won’t rust. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures show about 35% of homes across Lancing and its surrounding area date from 1919 to 1939. We check the wall construction on homes of that age, as it decides how the pipework goes through.

Portslade Manor, about 4.6 miles east, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it. Close to Lancing station? A small study or box room used for work can typically be cooled with a single indoor unit.

Lancing is about 3 miles east of Worthing, in West Sussex. We cover Lancing for air conditioning, along with the rest of West Sussex. Lancing is one of 371 towns, villages and districts in West Sussex we cover for homes and businesses.

Property
A hairdressing salon.

Questions from Lancing

Does being near the sea make a difference to air conditioning in Lancing?

It can. Lancing is within about 1 mile of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.

Is Lancing in your area for air conditioning?

We do: Lancing falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.

Which brands do you work with?

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 tell you why.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.

Do I need planning permission?

Sometimes. The rules differ for heat pumps and cooling-only air conditioning, and for houses, flats, listed buildings and conservation areas. We point out anything that may need permission at the survey, and the council has the final say. This is general information, not legal advice.

Where does the outdoor unit go?

We agree it with you on the survey. It needs space around it to breathe and room for an engineer to service it, and a position facing a road can bring extra planning considerations. We will tell you what to check before we fit it.

How soon will you get back to me?

The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.

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.”
