Homes in West Hanney and air conditioning
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures show about 38% of homes in the West Hanney area were built in 2000 or later, and Census 2021 figures found about 65% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Newer homes are often easier to fit, with cavity walls and space in the loft for pipework. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have space for the outdoor unit, and several rooms can share one on a multi-split. Roughly a third of a mile or less from central West Hanney, you reach the West Hanney Conservation Area. There are 2 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of West Hanney. About 32 listed entries lie within half a mile of central West Hanney, Church of St James (grade II*) among them. That matters for air conditioning: permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, and a unit used only for cooling isn’t covered at all, so we check with the local planning authority (normally Vale of White Horse council) where necessary.
Older streets near Church of St James may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes. Longworth House (roughly 4.2 miles north) shows the area has its share of heritage. A listed home needs consent before an outdoor unit or pipework goes on.

What owners can safely do
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
What we do, step by step
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you don’t need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. If a lane or gateway near West Hanney is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- Each room is sized and the unit positions agreed, then you get a fixed-price quote.
- On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
- Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time

Different systems, different jobs
Multi-split systems
Two rooms on a multi-split are typically £2,800–£4,500 + VAT, and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT. The pipe routes to each room make the biggest difference to the price.
Pipework and condensate drains
Cooling produces water as the air is dried, which the condensate drain takes away. If gravity won’t do it, a condensate pump is fitted and we allow for that in the quote.

How long does air conditioning installation take?
Most single-room systems take a day. Multi-room and ducted systems take longer, depending on the pipe routes and access, and we tell you how long on the quote.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Most of the time, yes: a dedicated circuit is needed. Under Part P, a new circuit has to be notified unless a registered competent person does it, and we are NICEIC approved, so we can install and certify it.
