Air conditioning in West Heath

About our air conditioning in West Heath

Thinking about air conditioning but not sure where to start? Just phone 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with photos of the rooms and the outside of the property, and you’ll hear back from us the same working day about a survey or a fixed-price quote. Whether you call it air con, air conditioning or an air-to-air heat pump, in West Heath it means the same thing to us: the right unit in the right place, fitted and commissioned properly.

Around West Heath, 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.

Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Safe owner checks

Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. 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.

What happens if it’s left?

Putting up with another summer of portable units and fans rarely makes sense. A properly installed split moves heat outside, keeps the noisy parts out of the room and most of the time heats too, so it works for you in winter as well. An early booking makes the visit to West Heath easier to arrange.

The cost depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, the access and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we are called out for in West Heath

Computers, screens, lighting and people all give off heat. A small office or a busy room can warm up fast with equipment and people in it, even when it is not especially hot outside.

The things we are asked about most include:

  • Fans and portables that don’t keep up
  • A business premises that overheats in summer
  • A room that is unbearable on warm days

The Vyne (roughly 3 miles east) shows the area has its share of heritage. A listed home needs consent before an outdoor unit or pipework goes on.

Comparing quotes

  • The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
  • Whether they looked at the job before pricing it

How to choose an air conditioning engineer

West Heath questions

Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in West Heath?

That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The half-mile around the middle of West Heath holds about 4 listed buildings and structures. Permitted development only covers heat pumps that are not used solely for cooling, and not within the grounds of a listed building. Conservation areas add limits on outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with the planning department at Basingstoke and Deane council, usually the authority for West Heath.

Is West Heath in your area for air conditioning?

Yes. West Heath is one of the places we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

How do you size the system?

It depends on the room, not only its floor area. Glazing, orientation, the roof and what goes on in the room all affect it and the survey covers each of them.

Does air conditioning need its own electrical supply?

Typically, yes. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote and we install and certify the circuit as NICEIC approved contractors.

Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?

Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from pictures and details for simple jobs. A fixed-price quote follows.

Can I use air conditioning to heat a room?

Most of the time, yes. Running as a heat pump, it moves heat in from outside rather than making it from electricity alone. If you want it to replace your main heating, ask about air-to-air heat pumps and the conditions for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant.

The process

The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. 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 a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. We plan the trip to West Heath around you.

  1. Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
  2. Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
  3. Then the work: units up, pipes and drain run, and a new circuit where needed.
  4. Before it runs, the pipework is proved tight and put under vacuum.
  5. The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.

How to prepare

  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
  • Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Getting a quote

Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
