Air conditioning across Peckham

Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Peckham

Any installation we do in Peckham follows the same process as everywhere else we work: survey, fixed-price quote, a neat installation, full commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork. You know the price before work begins and the paperwork is in your hands when we finish. For air conditioning in Peckham, you get one team and one number from survey to sign-off, wherever you are in Greater London.

Many installs in Peckham can go ahead as permitted development, but listed buildings, conservation areas and flats often need consent first: we tell you at the survey if it applies.

In a London area like Peckham, many of the homes we are asked about are flats, maisonettes and terraced houses. That shapes the job: where the outdoor unit can go, how the pipework reaches it and who needs to agree first. A freeholder or managing agent often has a say in a flat, and we can give you the details they’ll ask for.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Aftercare tips

Simple habits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Close windows and doors while the system is cooling
  • Keep the handover documents somewhere safe
  • Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter

We show you how to take the filters out and clean them. Clean them every few weeks when the system is in heavy use, following the manual, and keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter.

Use sensible settings. A moderate set temperature cools the room just as well as the lowest one, without the waste and keep doors and windows shut while it runs.

FAQs for Peckham

Is Peckham in your area for air conditioning?

Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Peckham is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.

Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Peckham?

In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. 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.

How long will the installation take?

It takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. We confirm the time when we quote, so you can plan around it.

Will you need to do electrical work?

In most cases, yes: a dedicated circuit is needed. Adding a new circuit is notifiable building work under Part P unless it’s done by a registered competent person, and we are NICEIC approved, so we can install and certify it.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.

Can the outdoor unit go on a roof or at ground level?

Wall brackets, ground level and flat roofs are all options, wherever the pipe route, airflow and servicing access work best. We also think about noise near bedrooms and neighbours, and the position can affect planning.

Why does F-Gas certification matter?

Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Peckham

We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed-price quote.

Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.

What an install looks like in Peckham

The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 39% of homes in and around Peckham before 1919, and about 70% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. Older homes often have solid walls, which take longer to core drill, so we plan pipe routes carefully and keep them as discreet as we can. In flats, the lease and the freeholder usually decide where an outdoor unit can go, and the permitted development rules for flats are tighter. For a London home, we plan the outdoor unit position, the pipe route and any approvals before the day.

With historic houses such as Queen's House about 2.6 miles east, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules. If you work from home near Queens Road Peckham station, a home office that overheats is one of the easiest rooms to cool.

What happens on the day

On the day, we 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 the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. Photos of the room and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan most of a visit to Peckham in advance.

  1. First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
  2. Then the prescription: the right system and size for each room, on a fixed-price quote.
  3. The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.
  4. Checks: a pressure test for leaks, then a vacuum to clear moisture.
  5. Finally, the clean bill of health: commissioning, the controls explained and your paperwork handed over.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Different systems, different jobs

Offices, shops and commercial rooms

Systems over 12 kW of effective rated output bring extra duties for the building, including a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange the inspection and get the system ready for it.

Outdoor unit positions

On flats and terraced houses, space outside is often the deciding factor. We look at walls, roofs, balconies and yards on the survey and we flag any consent you may need.
