FAQs for Moor Street
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Moor Street?
It can, as Moor Street is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Will air conditioning in Moor Street need planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Moor Street sits inside the Moor Street Conservation Area. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones can’t, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the planning department at Swale council, normally the authority for Moor Street.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
How do I know what size unit to get?
Sizing is done on the survey, room by room. An undersized unit never catches up, and an oversized one cycles and wastes energy and we explain the output we recommend.
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 will work out which band applies to yours.
Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?
Number of rooms, space outside and how much of the unit you want to see all decide it. Ducted units need a void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling, which we check on the survey.
How we handle air conditioning in Moor Street
We approach an installation much as a doctor approaches a patient: survey first, install second, commission and hand over last. At sign-off, the system is tested in each mode, the controls are explained and the F-Gas records are left with you. For air conditioning in Moor Street, you get one team and one number from survey to sign-off, wherever you are in Medway.
Getting the size right matters more than the brand: the survey covers room size, glazing, insulation and how the room is used, so the unit is not too big or too small.
Around Moor Street, many people choose a system that heats as well as cools, which suits rooms the main heating does not reach well, such as a garden room or loft.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Air conditioning in Moor Street: local notes
At about 3 miles from the coast, Moor Street is close enough for sea air to matter. Some manufacturers offer anti-corrosion coated coils for coastal sites, and we will tell you if the model you choose has that option. About 48% of households live in terraced houses, according to the 2021 Census. Terraces have little side access, so the outdoor unit typically goes on the rear wall or a flat roof, with the pipe run kept short.
If you work from home near Rainham (Kent) station, a home office that overheats is one of the easiest rooms to cool.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
What happens on the day
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. The visit takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Moor Street.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- The system is sized, positions are agreed and the price is fixed.
- On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
- We run and connect the pipes, cable and drain, then pressure test and evacuate the circuit.
- It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in

What affects the quote in Moor Street
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- What electrical work the job needs
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
