Air conditioning for Mersham

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.

Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.

Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Send a few pictures of the rooms and the outside walls when you phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier, and you will hear back from us the same working day to arrange a survey or a quote. Modern air conditioning heats as well as cools: the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes called air conditioning, which is why many owners use theirs all year.

Where the outdoor unit goes decides how quiet and tidy the job is: airflow, noise towards neighbours, pipe length and access for servicing all count.

Space outside is rarely the problem in a place like Mersham. 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. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Air conditioning in Mersham: the local picture

Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 45% of homes in the Mersham area were built in 2000 or later, and about 79% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Newer homes usually have cavity walls and loft space that make pipe runs easier, though some estates have planning conditions or covenants worth checking. 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.

About 4.7 miles east stands Westenhanger Castle. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.

What happens on the day

Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it doesn’t catch you out. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone. On site, 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 Mersham.

  1. First comes a site survey, or photos and measurements for a straightforward job.
  2. Cooling loads are worked out room by room, and the written price names the make, the model and every position.
  3. Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
  4. Once the electrics are connected, the pipework is tested for leaks and put under vacuum before any refrigerant flows.
  5. We commission the system, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty details.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Your questions about air conditioning in Mersham

Can I fit air conditioning in Mersham without planning permission?

There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central Mersham sits inside a conservation area. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not 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 Mersham, normally Ashford council).

Can you do air conditioning in Mersham?

Yes. Mersham is one of the places we cover. To start, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few photos.

Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?

The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

Do you look at the job first?

Yes. We always look before we price, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.

Which type of system should I choose?

There’s no single best type. A split suits one room, a multi-split several, a ducted system hides the unit, and a cassette spreads air across larger rooms. We recommend one on the survey and explain why.

Can air conditioning heat my home as well?

Typically, yes. Running as a heat pump, it moves heat in from outside rather than making it from electricity alone. To replace your main heating, there are extra conditions, including for the £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for air-to-air heat pumps.

When will I hear back?

We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

What we’re called out for in Mersham

Computers, screens, lighting and people all give off heat. A home office with a couple of screens, or a meeting room with a few people in it, warms up quickly, even when it is not especially hot outside.

Common reasons people call us include:

  • Too many options and no clear advice
  • Expensive direct electric heating
  • Rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night

Homes near Church of St John the Baptist are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.

What to look for in a quote

  • Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
  • Whether the quote is a fixed price
  • How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected

Our hiring checklist

What the work involves, system by system

Ducted systems

One ducted unit can serve more than one room through separate ducts and grilles, which suits new builds, extensions and refurbishments where ceilings are open.

Outdoor unit positions

Noise is part of the decision: keeping it clear of bedrooms and boundaries where we can and fitted so vibration doesn’t carry into the building. It can also affect whether planning permission is needed.

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.”
