How it works
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Martin.
- We survey the property, or work from your pictures for a simple job.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- We protect the area, then fit both halves of the system.
- Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
- The system is commissioned, the controls explained and the F-Gas records handed over.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

About our air conditioning in Martin
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, and the manufacturer’s warranty terms are set out on your quote. If you want air conditioning in Martin, one call covers the survey, the fixed-price quote, the installation and the F-Gas paperwork.
Getting the size right matters more than the brand: we look at the room’s size, windows, insulation and use before choosing a unit.
Homes around Martin normally have room outside for an outdoor unit. The questions are more often the age of the walls, the electrics and how far the pipes need to run.
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Looking after your system
Simple habits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Clean the filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
- Keep to the service interval the manufacturer recommends
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
We recommend an annual service, and some manufacturers make servicing a warranty condition. We’ll remind you when it’s due, so it does not get forgotten.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing you can do. Clean filters keep the air moving and help the system work as designed, which costs you more to run.
Rented and managed buildings
Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
How the job changes from property to property
Outdoor unit positions
On flats and terraced houses, space outside is often the deciding factor. We look at walls, roofs, balconies and yards on the survey, and tell you about any permissions you may need.
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
For bigger buildings, VRF systems link many indoor units to shared outdoor plant. Commercial and VRF systems are priced after a survey, with the design explained in the quote.
FAQs for Martin
Can you do air conditioning in Martin?
We do: Martin falls inside our working area. To start, phone 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few photos.
Will air conditioning in Martin need planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central Martin is a short walk from the Martin Conservation Area. 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 New Forest council, which is usually the planning authority for Martin.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we will tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Can I use air conditioning to heat a room?
In most cases, yes: modern splits are normally heat pumps, so they can heat a room in winter. The Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.
Which type of air conditioning is best?
It depends on the rooms and the building. Wall-mounted splits suit single rooms, multi-splits run several rooms from one outdoor unit, ducted systems hide the unit in the ceiling, and cassettes suit offices and larger rooms. We recommend one on the survey and explain why.
How do I know what size unit to get?
Floor area is only part of it. Windows, the direction the room faces, the roof above and the people and equipment in it all count and the survey covers each of them.
Do I need a new electrical circuit?
Most systems need their own supply from the consumer unit. Under Part P, a new circuit has to be notified unless a registered competent person does it, and as NICEIC approved contractors we install and certify it as part of the job.
Homes in Martin and air conditioning
About 84% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. 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.
A loft bedroom or a glazed extension is often the room that prompts the first call. Living close to Church of All Saints? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.
