Hampshire · Air conditioning installation
Air conditioning installation in Oakley, Hampshire
Our engineers work in Oakley on air conditioning installation. Diagnosis first, a fixed price and proper paperwork when we finish.
- Expensive direct electric heating
- An office, shop or restaurant that is uncomfortable for staff and customers
- A room that is unbearable on warm days
How it works
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Seeing the property in photos first helps us plan the trip to Oakley.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
- Then the prescription: the right system and size for each room, on a fixed-price quote.
- The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.
- Before it runs, the pipework is proved tight and put under vacuum.
- Finally, the clean bill of health: commissioning, the controls explained and your paperwork handed over.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time

Questions from Oakley
Do you cover Oakley for air conditioning?
Yes, Oakley is within the area we cover. To start, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email with a few pictures.
Is Oakley within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. Ask to see proof before you book anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Where will you put the outdoor unit?
We agree it with you on the survey. It must have clear airflow and space for servicing, and a position facing a road can bring extra planning considerations. We’ll tell you what to check before we fit it.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and explain why.
Why it’s worth doing now in Oakley
If you are thinking about air conditioning for a property in Oakley, there’s no need to wait for a heatwave. The installation takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system, and the date is agreed with you once you’re happy with the quote. A system that is left with a fault, or without a service, typically costs more to run.
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all make a difference.
Why us?
- Every job looked at before it’s priced
- NICEIC approved electrical contractors
- F-Gas certified company

How we price air conditioning
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The brand, model and parts involved
- What state the existing equipment is in
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Before you get in touch
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by pictures or a survey, the price is fixed. To start, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
What owners can safely do
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are typically the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: 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.

Air conditioning around Oakley
About 40% of homes in the Oakley area date from 1945 to 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and Census 2021 figures found about 86% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Homes of that age usually have cavity or solid brick walls, and we check which before planning the pipe route. 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. Oakley’s centre is no more than about a third of a mile from the Church Oakley Conservation Area. Church of St. Leonard, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 15 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Oakley’s centre. Before any outdoor unit is fixed here, we find out whether the building is protected. Where it is, the planning team at Basingstoke and Deane council, which typically handles Oakley has the final say on what’s allowed.
A loft bedroom or a glazed extension is often the room that prompts the first call. If your home is in one of the older streets near St John's, it’s worth checking whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before an install.

“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.”
