A single-room split system is typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, while a two-room multi-split is typically £2,800–£4,500 + VAT and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT.

AirCon Doctor works across London and the South East from East Grinstead, as an F-Gas certified company with NICEIC approval.
In a smaller place like Shephall, most installs are in houses and cottages, often with gardens, which usually leaves room for an outdoor unit. The wall type and how the electrics reach the unit are often the main things to check.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

Your questions about air conditioning in Shephall
Do you cover smaller places like Shephall?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is Shephall in your area for air conditioning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Shephall is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?
There’s no single best type. Wall-mounted splits suit single rooms, multi-splits run several rooms from one outdoor unit, ducted systems hide the unit in the ceiling, and cassettes suit offices and larger rooms. We recommend one on the survey and explain why.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Which accreditations do you hold?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
How long will the installation take?
It takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. We confirm the time when we quote, so you can plan around it.
How the job changes from property to property
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
Commercial rooms often need more than one unit and controls that suit how the space is used. We size for the people, equipment and glazing in the space, and plan the work so the business keeps running.
Wall-mounted split systems
A wall-mounted split is the most common choice for a single room. The indoor unit sits high on a wall, the outdoor unit goes outside, and the two are joined by insulated pipework, a cable and a condensate drain, routed as agreed on the survey.

Air conditioning in Shephall: local notes
Roughly a third of a mile or less from central Shephall, you reach the Shephall Green Conservation Area. There are 2 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Shephall. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 5 within half a mile of the centre, such as Church of Saint Mary (grade II*). Before any outdoor unit is fixed here, we find out whether the building is protected. Where it is, the planning team at Stevenage council, which typically handles Shephall has the final say on what’s allowed. About 65% of homes in the Shephall area date from 1945 to 1972, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and about 53% of households live in terraced houses, according to the last census (2021). We check the wall construction on homes of that age, as it decides how the pipework goes through. With a terrace, the back wall or an extension roof is typically the best place for the outdoor unit.
Homes near Church of Saint Mary are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it. About 1.6 miles south-east stands Aston Bury. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.

What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access, and we tidy up before we leave. Send pictures of the space and the outside wall, and we can plan the work near Shephall.
- 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.
- Testing: the circuit is pressure tested and evacuated before the refrigerant is released.
- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
