What we do, step by step
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. If your building in Old Oak Common has a managing agent, a concierge or sign-in rules, mention them when you book.
- We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
- Each room is sized and you get a fixed-price quote setting out the equipment and the unit positions.
- Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
- Power is wired in, the joints are proved leak-tight under pressure and a vacuum pump draws out air and moisture.
- Finally, it’s commissioned, tested in each mode and handed over with the F-Gas records.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Advice
Air conditioning in Old Oak Common, done properly
We fit wall-mounted splits, multi-split systems, ducted systems and ceiling cassettes, with VRF for larger buildings. The right choice depends on the rooms, the building and how visible you want the indoor units to be and we talk you through it on the survey. Whether you call it air con, air conditioning or an air-to-air heat pump, it’s the job we do every week across Greater London.
In Old Oak Common, as across London, the rooms that get hottest are typically under the roof or behind large sunny windows. Many people start with one wall-mounted unit in the room that suffers most, and a multi-split can cover more rooms from one outdoor unit where space outside is short.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Old Oak Common questions
Do you cover Old Oak Common for air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Old Oak Common is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Old Oak Common?
Typically, 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.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. Each visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
How do you size the system?
We size each room on the survey, from its size, glazing, orientation and use. Too small, and it runs flat out; too big, and it switches on and off and wastes energy and we explain the output we recommend.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different answer:
- A lack of fresh air (most split systems recirculate room air rather than bringing fresh air in, which is a job for ventilation)
- Building damp that has a structural cause
- Problems with a gas boiler or the radiators
If in doubt, ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Signs you need air conditioning in Old Oak Common
Bedrooms that are too warm at night are a frequent reason for a call. Once a bedroom has soaked up heat during the day, opening a window may not bring the temperature down far enough, especially on a still night.
The things we are asked about most are:
- Portable units that are noisy and barely cope
- Old electric heaters you’d like to replace with something more efficient
- Commercial rooms that are too warm for staff
About 2.5 miles south stands Kelmscott House. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.

Air conditioning around Old Oak Common
About 42% of homes in and around Old Oak Common have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and Census 2021 figures found about 67% of households live in flats. Newer homes usually have cavity walls and loft space that make pipe runs easier, though some estates have planning conditions or covenants worth checking. For a flat, we look at balconies, flat roofs and rear walls for the outdoor unit, and the lease often needs checking first. For a London home, we plan the outdoor unit position, the pipe route and any approvals before the day.
Homes near Church of Eritrean Orthodox Brent are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.
