Air conditioning installation in Marley, Kent
Air conditioning in and around Marley, from a site survey or diagnosis to sign-off and a fixed price agreed before work begins.
- A loft room or top floor that bakes in summer
- A system on old refrigerant that’s due for replacement
- Rooms heated by plug-in heaters
Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Marley
We install leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. We recommend a model on the survey and explain why it suits the room, along with the manufacturer’s warranty terms on your quote. Most split systems we fit in Marley are reversible: the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes called air conditioning, so a system bought for summer earns its keep in winter too.
Sizing is where cheap installs go wrong: we look at the room’s size, windows, insulation and use before choosing a unit.
Space outside is rarely the problem in a place like Marley. The questions are more often the age of the walls, the electrics and how far the pipes need to run.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Somewhere like Marley, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
- We size the system for each room, then send a fixed-price quote with the units and where they go.
- Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
- Once the electrics are connected, the pipework is tested for leaks and put under vacuum before any refrigerant flows.
- Finally, it’s commissioned, tested in each mode and handed over with the F-Gas records.
Before we arrive
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
Ask for a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

What we’re called out for in Marley
Loft rooms and top floors tend to suffer most. The roof takes the full force of the sun, and warm air rises from the floors below, so a bedroom or office under the roof can stay warm well into the night.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- An office, shop or restaurant that’s uncomfortable for staff and customers
- Rooms that get too hot to sleep or work in
- A portable unit with a hose out of the window
Living close to Church of St Augustine? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
Questions from Marley
Is air conditioning in Marley permitted development?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. A conservation area takes in the middle of Marley. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to Dover council, which is usually the planning authority for Marley when it matters.
Do you cover smaller places like Marley?
Yes. Marley is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Will you make a mess?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
What warranty do I get?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning and we explain the terms for your brand on the quote.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Where does the outdoor unit go?
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 the position can affect planning.
What air conditioning can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A lack of fresh air (most split systems recirculate room air rather than bringing fresh air in, which is a job for ventilation)
- A building fabric problem such as single glazing or no loft insulation
- Work that needs permission from a landlord or the council
Not sure which it is? You can call 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers

Air conditioning around Marley
The coast is only about 3 miles from Marley. Some manufacturers offer anti-corrosion coated coils for coastal sites, and we will tell you if the model you choose has that option. Census 2021 figures found about 65% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. 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.
With historic houses such as Walmer Castle about 3.5 miles south-east, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules.
Marley is about 3 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Properties in Marley get the same service as everywhere we cover: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote and written records at the end. In Kent alone we list 922 places, and Marley is one. We also work in Eastbourne, around 55 miles away.

Leave it or put it right?
For a home or business in Marley, booking the survey now gives time to plan. The installation takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access, and the date is agreed with you after you’ve accepted the fixed price. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
The cost depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, the access and what the work involves. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why people in Marley choose us
- A 24/7 emergency line
