How it works
You don’t need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Pictures of the space and the outside wall help us plan the work in Norwood New Town.
- We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
- Cooling loads are worked out room by room, and the written price names the make, the model and every position.
- On the day, we fit the indoor and outdoor units and run the pipework, cable and condensate drain.
- We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
- We commission the system, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty details.
Before we arrive
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit

Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Norwood New Town
Air conditioning is not only for summer: most modern splits heat too. The Energy Saving Trust recognises that air-to-air heat pumps often go by the name air conditioning, so a well-chosen unit can be useful in winter as well as summer. If you want air conditioning in Norwood New Town, you get one team and one number from survey to sign-off, wherever you are in Greater London.
Most installations here are a wall-mounted indoor unit, a short pipe run through the wall and an outdoor unit on the back or side of the property, with the drain run planned so it never drips where it shouldn’t.
Across London, and in Norwood New Town too, a lot of air conditioning goes into flats and terraces rather than detached houses. That shapes the job: where the outdoor unit can go, how the pipework reaches it and who needs to agree first. In a flat, the lease and the freeholder usually come into it, and we can give you the details they’ll ask for.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Pricing air conditioning in Norwood New Town
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:

Air conditioning around Norwood New Town
About 55% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). For a flat, we look at balconies, flat roofs and rear walls for the outdoor unit, and the lease often needs checking first. In London, outdoor unit positions, building rules and access tend to need more planning than the install itself.
With historic houses such as Kingswood House about 0.8 miles north-east, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules.

What we’re called out for in Norwood New Town
Poor sleep is one of the most common reasons homeowners ask about air conditioning. An open window doesn’t always cool a bedroom that has warmed up all day, particularly when there’s no breeze.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A room that is unbearable on warm days
- A system on old refrigerant that is due for replacement
- Fans and portables that do not keep up

Norwood New Town: your questions answered
Will air conditioning in Norwood New Town need planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The Harold Road Conservation Area is close to the centre of Norwood New Town. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t 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 planning department at Croydon council, typically the authority for Norwood New Town.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Norwood New Town?
Normally, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
Is Norwood New Town in your area?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of the South East, and that includes Norwood New Town.
What warranty do I get?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning and we explain the terms for your brand on the quote.
How long does it take to fit air conditioning?
It takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. The survey tells us how long your installation will need so there are no surprises.
Can you fit air conditioning in a leasehold flat?
That depends on the lease, the building and where the outdoor unit could go. An outdoor unit can sometimes go on a balcony, roof or rear wall, with consent and the survey looks at every option. This is general information, not legal advice.
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
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.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
