How the visit works
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. Work in Lunsford's Cross is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where necessary.
- Before it runs, the pipework is proved tight and put under vacuum.
- Finally, the clean bill of health: commissioning, the controls explained and your paperwork handed over.
Before we arrive
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand

Advice
When to call us in Lunsford's Cross
Most overheating comes from heat gained through the day. Sun through large windows, roof lights and glazed doors is the biggest source in many rooms, and the heat lingers long after the sun has moved round.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Not knowing which system, size or brand to choose
- A loft room or top floor that bakes in summer
- A system on old refrigerant that is due for replacement
Many split systems run in heating mode too, which makes them useful outside summer.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the quote is a fixed price
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
Air conditioning in Lunsford's Cross: the local picture
Lunsford's Cross is within about 3 miles of the coast. That is worth knowing for an install, as salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor coils and fixings, so we choose the position and fixings with that in mind. Census 2021 figures found about 84% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A side passage or back wall normally gives the outdoor unit a home, and more than one bedroom can be cooled through a multi-split.
Bedrooms under the roof and rooms with big sunny windows are usually the first to overheat, so they’re the usual place to start.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Stuffy rooms that need fresh air rather than cooling
- Heat loss through very poor insulation (a system will heat the room, but insulation is a separate job)
- Building damp that has a structural cause
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work
- VRF systems
- Ceiling cassettes
- Air-to-air heat pumps
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Multi-split systems
- Ducted systems
For landlords and property managers
Whether it’s one property or many, you get the same standard: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.

FAQs for Lunsford's Cross
Can I fit air conditioning in Lunsford's Cross without planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Around 1 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Lunsford's Cross. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that are not used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with Wealden council, which is typically the planning authority for Lunsford's Cross.
Will you come out to Lunsford's Cross?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?
It depends on the rooms and the building. A split suits one room, a multi-split several, a ducted system hides the unit, and a cassette spreads air across larger rooms. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat?
It depends on the building and the lease. Balconies, flat roofs and rear walls can all work, subject to consent, and we check the options on the survey. This is general information, not legal advice.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How do I know what size unit to get?
It depends on the room, not only its floor area. Glazing, orientation, the roof and what goes on in the room all affect it and the survey covers each of them.
Can the outdoor unit go on a roof or at ground level?
Wall brackets, ground level and flat roofs are all options, wherever the pipe route, airflow and servicing access work best. Noise near bedrooms and boundaries is part of the decision, and the position can affect planning.
What a customer said
“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.”
