How the job changes from property to property
Ceiling cassettes
A cassette needs a void above the ceiling for the unit, pipework and drain, and many use a built-in condensate pump to lift the water away. We check the ceiling void on the survey.
Ducted systems
With a ducted system, the indoor unit sits out of sight above the ceiling, and all you see is a discreet grille. It’s popular where people don’t want a unit on the wall.
Why it’s worth doing now in Temple Hill
Fans and portables move warm air around rather than removing it. A fixed system removes the heat to the outside, runs more quietly in the room and can typically heat as well, so it earns its keep all year. For a place like Temple Hill, booking ahead lets us plan the visit properly.
Putting several jobs into one visit often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed price.

Common questions in Temple Hill
Will air conditioning in Temple Hill need planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Around 18 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Temple Hill. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and isn’t used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof isn’t allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask Dartford council, which is normally the planning authority for Temple Hill.
Do you cover smaller places like Temple Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.
How long does it take to fit air conditioning?
It takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. The survey tells us how long your installation will need, so you can plan around it.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we will tell you what to do first.
How it works
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins so it doesn’t catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Tell us about any gates or steps at your property near Temple Hill when you book.
- We survey the property, or work from your photos for a simple job.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.

Preparing for the visit

What else we do in Temple Hill
What an install looks like in Temple Hill
About 34% of homes in the Temple Hill area have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data, and the 2021 Census found about 39% of households in terraced houses. Newer homes normally have cavity walls and loft space that make pipe runs easier, though some estates have planning conditions or covenants worth checking. Terraces have little side access, so the outdoor unit normally goes on the rear wall or a flat roof, with the pipe run kept short.
If your home is in one of the older streets near St Edmunds Church, it’s worth checking whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before an install. Plenty of people near Dartford station split the week between the train and a spare room, and that spare room is often the first to get a unit.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:
- Report drips, noises or error codes right away
- File the paperwork with the manual
- Keep the indoor unit’s filters clean
Commissioning is the last stage: every mode is tested before we go. Once it’s running properly, we take you through the controls and settings so you know how to get the best from it.
Book an annual service. The engineer cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small problems early and keeps the warranty paperwork right where servicing is a condition.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
