Air conditioning around Putney
About 69% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. For a flat, we look at balconies, flat roofs and rear walls for the outdoor unit, and the lease often needs checking first. In London, outdoor unit positions, building rules and access tend to need more planning than the install itself.

Air con installers in Putney
We approach an installation much as a doctor approaches a patient: survey first, install second, commission and hand over last. At sign-off, the system is tested in each mode, the controls are explained and the F-Gas records are left with you. For air conditioning in Putney, you get one team and one number from survey to sign-off.
Most single-room installs in Putney are done in a day, while multi-split systems for several rooms can take longer.
Across London, and in Putney too, a lot of air conditioning goes into flats and terraces rather than detached houses. That shapes the job: where the outdoor unit can go, how the pipework reaches it and who needs to agree first. In a flat, the lease and the freeholder typically come into it, and we can give you the details they’ll ask for.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Signs you need air conditioning in Putney
Some people come to us for heating rather than cooling. Direct electric heaters convert electricity into heat one for one, while an air-to-air heat pump moves heat from outside, which means more heat out than electricity in. Most modern split systems work this way.
Customers normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- A loft conversion that is too warm to use
- An old system that needs replacing
- Not knowing which system, size or brand to choose
If you commute from Putney station and work from home on other days, one wall-mounted unit in the home office is often all that is needed.
What your quote should include
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
Your questions about air conditioning in Putney
Can you do air conditioning in Putney?
Yes, Putney is within the area we cover. Just phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few details.
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Putney?
Usually, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
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 booking anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
How long does it take to fit air conditioning?
A single-room system is usually fitted in a day. Multi-split, ducted and cassette systems take longer and the quote says how long to expect.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
That depends on the brand. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Does air conditioning work as heating?
Typically, yes. A heat pump moves heat from the outside air into the room, so it gives out more heat than the electricity it uses. If you want it to replace your main heating, ask about air-to-air heat pumps and the conditions for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant.
The process
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Some blocks in Putney need contractor details in advance, so tell us what your building needs.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
- 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.
- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Shut doors and windows when it’s on
- Do not cover or box in the outdoor unit
The handover includes the records you need: F-Gas records, commissioning details and the manufacturer’s warranty terms. File them together as they’re needed for servicing and any warranty question.
Have the system serviced once a year. The engineer cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small problems early, and it keeps any warranty servicing conditions in order.
