Why act early in Larkfield

For a home or business in Larkfield, booking the survey now gives time to plan. Installation takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access, and we agree a date that suits you once you are happy with the quote. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.

Several rooms, units or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered, and you will get one fixed price.

Air conditioning installation in Larkfield

A new system normally needs a dedicated circuit from the fuse board. Under Part P, a new circuit is notifiable unless a registered competent person does it, and our NICEIC approval means we install and certify it ourselves. When someone in Larkfield asks us for air con, the first questions are normally price and who will fit it. We publish typical prices and do the refrigerant work as an F-Gas certified company.

New circuits are done by our NICEIC approved electricians, so the electrical paperwork comes with the installation.

Homes around Larkfield typically have room outside for an outdoor unit. More often it’s the walls, the electrics and the length of the pipe run that need thinking about.

Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

What happens on the day

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. Work in Larkfield is booked in advance at a time that suits you.

  1. You send photos, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
  2. The system is sized, positions are agreed and the price is fixed.
  3. Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
  4. We run and connect the pipes, cable and drain, then pressure test and evacuate the circuit.
  5. We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.

How to prepare

  • Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
  • Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them

FAQs for Larkfield

Is Larkfield within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Will air conditioning in Larkfield need planning permission?

It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The half-mile around the middle of Larkfield holds about 8 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 isn’t allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask the local planning authority (for Larkfield, normally Tonbridge and Malling council).

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?

Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.

What warranty do I get?

The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.

Will you need to do electrical work?

Typically, yes. We check your consumer unit on the survey and include any electrical work on the quote, and our NICEIC approval covers the installation and certificate.

Do you work on all makes?

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.

Let and managed properties

The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.

Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.

How the job changes from property to property

Ducted systems

With a ducted system, the indoor unit sits out of sight above the ceiling, and all you see is a discreet grille. It’s popular where people don’t want a unit on the wall.

Outdoor unit positions

Outdoor units are fitted on wall brackets, at ground level or on a flat roof, whatever suits the building and the route. It needs airflow around it and room for servicing.

A customer’s words

“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.”
