Stonehills air conditioning
Air conditioning in and around Stonehills, from the first look to the final check and a fixed price agreed before any work starts.
- Portable units that are noisy and barely cope
- Not knowing which system, size or brand to choose
- A loft room or top floor that bakes in summer
When it’s something else
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Work that needs permission from a landlord or the council
- A lack of fresh air (most split systems recirculate room air rather than bringing fresh air in, which is a job for ventilation)
- Draughts and missing insulation
Not sure which it is? You can ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

About our air conditioning in Stonehills
Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Send a few pictures of the rooms and the outside walls when you call us on 07833 053749 or email us, and you’ll hear back from us the same working day about a survey or a fixed-price quote. Every installation in Stonehills begins with a look at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go, then a fixed-price quote that names the make and model.
Around Stonehills, many people choose a system that heats as well as cools, which suits rooms the main heating doesn’t reach well, such as a garden room or loft.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

When to call us in Stonehills
Rooms in the roof are often the hardest to keep cool. The roof takes the full force of the sun, and warm air rises from the floors below, which is why a loft bedroom can still be warm at bedtime.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Uncertainty over the right type and size of system
- Bedrooms and offices that overheat in summer
- A loft room or top floor that bakes in summer
With historic houses such as Beaulieu Palace House about 4.6 miles west, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules.
Comparing quotes
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- If the quote is based on a survey, photos or a diagnosis
What affects the quote in Stonehills
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The brand, model and parts involved
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Before you get in touch
What to send for a quote:
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749 or send an email.
Your questions about air conditioning in Stonehills
Does being near the sea make a difference to air conditioning in Stonehills?
It can, as Stonehills is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.
Is air conditioning in Stonehills permitted development?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Stonehills is a short walk from the Ashlett Creek Conservation Area. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the planning department at New Forest council, usually the authority for Stonehills.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
What does it cost to install air conditioning?
Single-room systems start from £1,200 + VAT and are typically up to £2,200 + VAT. The price includes supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation, and we fix it after a survey or from your photos.
Can I use air conditioning to heat a room?
Yes, most modern split systems run as heat pumps, so they heat as well as cool. The Energy Saving Trust points out that an air-to-air heat pump is often just called air conditioning. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.
Do you work in Stonehills?
Yes. We work in Stonehills and the rest of Hampshire, within the London and South East area we cover. To book, ring us on 07833 053749 or send an email.

What else we do in Stonehills
What happens on the day
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. 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. If a lane or gateway near Stonehills is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- 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.
- Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where needed.
- Checks: a pressure test for leaks, then a vacuum to clear moisture.
- 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
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
