Outdoor units around Old Basing often sit on the ground or a low wall bracket at the back of the house, where it’s out of sight from the road and easy to service.
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.

Old Basing questions
Will you come out to Old Basing?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you do air conditioning in Old Basing?
Yes, Old Basing is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so it’s worth checking. Either way, keep a record of every service.
How much does air conditioning installation cost?
Single-room systems start from £1,200 + VAT and are typically up to £2,200 + VAT. That covers supply, installation, commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork and is fixed after a survey or from pictures.
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
What size air conditioning unit do I need?
It depends on the room, not only its floor area. Glazing, orientation, the roof and what goes on in the room all affect it and the survey covers each of them.
How the job changes from property to property
Outdoor unit positions
We think about noise when we choose the spot: keeping it clear of bedrooms and boundaries where we can, and on anti-vibration mounts. Position can also affect planning.
Ceiling cassettes
Cassettes need space above the ceiling and a route for the condensate, with a condensate pump where the drain cannot fall naturally. The survey confirms the void and the drain route.
Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning in Old Basing
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The size of the job
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The pipe route between the units
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will explain each part.
Before you get in touch
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because every property is different. Once we’ve looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, phone 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by air conditioning, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It won’t put right:
- An installation that needs consent nobody has given yet
- Damp from leaks or a lack of ventilation
- A building fabric problem such as single glazing or no loft insulation
If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Air conditioning in Old Basing: local notes
The Old Basing Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Old Basing, within about a third of a mile. On the National Heritage List, around 62 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Old Basing; Church of St Mary (grade I) is one. That matters for air conditioning: permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, and a unit used only for cooling isn’t covered at all, so we check with Basingstoke and Deane council, typically the planning authority here where necessary. The 2021 Census found about 81% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split.
Homes near Church of St Mary are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it. The Vyne (roughly 3.3 miles north-west) shows the area has its share of heritage. A listed home needs consent before an outdoor unit or pipework goes on.

How the visit works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. A few photos let us plan a visit to a place like Old Basing.
- 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.
- Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a quote
Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
