About our air conditioning in Lower Bourne
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi are among the brands we fit. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons for it, and the manufacturer’s warranty terms are set out on your quote. Whether you call it air con, air conditioning or an air-to-air heat pump, in Lower Bourne it means the same thing to us: the right unit in the right place, fitted and commissioned properly.
The outdoor unit position is the biggest single decision: we balance airflow, noise, the pipe run and access for future servicing.
A cottage and a newer house near Lower Bourne are very different jobs. Thick walls, low ceilings and beams need care with pipe routes, and a listed home needs consent before anything is fixed to it.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

What an install looks like in Lower Bourne
About 77% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Houses usually have a side or rear wall with room for the outdoor unit, and a multi-split can serve several rooms from one outdoor unit.
About 1.6 miles north stands Farnham Castle. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.

How the visit works
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. In a place like Lower Bourne, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.
- Checks: a pressure test for leaks, then a vacuum to clear moisture.
- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Common questions in Lower Bourne
Will you come out to Lower Bourne?
Yes. Lower Bourne is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Lower Bourne?
It depends on the property. The Old Church Lane Conservation Area is close to the centre of Lower Bourne. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact Waverley council, which is typically the planning authority for Lower Bourne.
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. We also think about noise near bedrooms and neighbours and position can affect planning.
Can I use air conditioning to heat a room?
In most cases, yes. A heat pump moves heat from the outside air into the room, so it gives out more heat than the electricity it uses. To replace your main heating, there are extra conditions, including for the £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for air-to-air heat pumps.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Different systems, different jobs
Multi-split systems
Two rooms on a multi-split are typically £2,800–£4,500 + VAT, and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT. The route from the outdoor unit to each room is the main variable.
Outdoor unit positions
Noise is part of the decision: away from bedroom windows and neighbours’ windows where possible and fitted so vibration does not carry into the building. Position can also affect planning.
What we’re called out for in Lower Bourne
In shops, offices and restaurants, the heat comes from customers, staff, equipment and lighting as well as the sun. Comfortable staff and customers are the usual reason businesses get in touch, and some rooms need cooling for the equipment as much as the people.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- Rooms that get too hot to sleep or work in
- A home office that warms up with screens and equipment
- A business premises that overheats in summer
Living close to St Martin by the Green? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether extra work needs your approval first
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
For landlords and property managers
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
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.”
