Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Southington
Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Send a few photos of the rooms and the outside walls when you ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form, and we will reply the same working day about a survey or a fixed-price quote. For air conditioning in Southington, you get one team and one number from survey to sign-off.
Most installations here are a wall-mounted indoor unit, a short pipe run through the wall and an outdoor unit on the back or side of the property, with the drain run planned so it never drips where it shouldn’t.
In a village like Southington, many homes are older, and some are listed. That matters, because a listed home needs consent and permitted development rules don’t apply to it, and the outdoor unit position is chosen to suit the building.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Before you call an engineer
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.

Southington questions
Is air conditioning in Southington permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. There’s a conservation area, the Overton Conservation Area, close to central Southington. A system that heats as well as cools may not need an application on a house, provided it stays within the permitted development limits. Cooling-only units get no such allowance, and listed buildings and road-facing positions in conservation areas need more care. We speak to the planning department at Basingstoke and Deane council, usually the authority for Southington when it matters.
Is Southington within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Every visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Can I do any of the installation 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.
Does air conditioning work as heating?
In most cases, yes: modern splits are usually heat pumps, so they can heat a room in winter. The Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
How does the warranty work?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- An installation that needs consent nobody has given yet
- Draughts and missing insulation
- Building damp that has a structural cause
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Air conditioning in Southington: the local picture
Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 41% of homes across Southington and its surrounding area were built in 2000 or later, and about 64% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Newer homes are often easier to fit, with cavity walls and space in the loft for pipework. With homes like that, finding a sensible outdoor unit position is rarely hard, and a multi-split lets two or more rooms run off it.
Around Church of St Mary, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install. Bedrooms under the roof and rooms with big sunny windows are normally the first to overheat, so they’re the usual place to start.

What affects the quote in Southington
Typical ranges are on our prices page, and your quote is built on your job. The quote depends on:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- The equipment or parts the job needs
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all make a difference.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The address and the type of property
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
How it works
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Southington.
- We survey the property, or work from your pictures for a simple job.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.

- Let us know where we can park and unload
