About our air conditioning in Onslow Village
The best installations are planned before a single hole is drilled. We look at each room’s size, glazing, orientation and use, and we agree the unit positions and the route for the pipes, cable and drain before you get a fixed-price quote. Every installation in Onslow Village begins with a look at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go, followed by a fixed-price quote with the brand, model and every part of the job set out.
Homes around Onslow Village are mostly houses, many with gardens, so there’s usually space for the outdoor unit. The wall type and how the electrics reach the unit are often the main things to check.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Air conditioning around Onslow Village
About 64% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Houses normally have a side or rear wall with room for the outdoor unit, and a multi-split can serve several rooms from one outdoor unit.
Older streets near All Saints' Church may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes. Guildford Castle, about 1.3 miles east, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it.

Before you call an engineer
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.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
FAQs for Onslow Village
Will air conditioning in Onslow Village need planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Onslow Village is a short walk from the Onslow Village Conservation Area. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof is not allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Guildford council, which is typically the planning authority for Onslow Village.
Is Onslow Village within the area you cover?
Yes. Onslow Village is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. Each visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Does air conditioning work as heating?
Typically, yes. Running as a heat pump, it moves heat in from outside rather than making it from electricity alone. To replace your main heating, there are extra conditions, including for the £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for air-to-air heat pumps.
How long does it take to fit air conditioning?
Most single-room systems take a day. Multi-split, ducted and cassette systems take longer and the quote says how long to expect.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. 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.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Draughts and missing insulation
- Building damp that has a structural cause
- Gas boiler or central heating faults (we don’t work on gas boilers)
If you are not sure, just ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
