Whitchurch questions
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Whitchurch?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central Whitchurch sits inside the Whitchurch Conservation Area. An air-to-air system used for heating as well as cooling can be permitted development on a house if it meets the conditions, but a cooling-only unit isn’t covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where necessary, we check with the planning department at Basingstoke and Deane council, normally the authority for Whitchurch.
Do you cover Whitchurch for air conditioning?
We do: Whitchurch falls inside our working area. To start, call us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few pictures.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.
When will I hear back?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump 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.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
About our air conditioning in Whitchurch
We approach an installation much as a doctor approaches a patient: survey first, install second, commission and hand over last. At sign-off, the system is tested in each mode, the controls are explained and the F-Gas records are left with you. Modern air conditioning heats as well as cools: the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes called air conditioning, so a system bought for summer earns its keep in winter too.
Many installs in Whitchurch can go ahead as permitted development, but listed buildings, conservation areas and flats need more care: we flag that at the survey.
In a place like Whitchurch, the outdoor unit often goes on the ground at the side or rear of the house, where it’s tucked away but still easy to reach for servicing.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

What air conditioning can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- A lack of fresh air (most split systems recirculate room air rather than bringing fresh air in, which is a job for ventilation)
- An installation that needs consent nobody has given yet
- Central heating repairs
If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will say what we think before booking.

All told, the work takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. Photos of the existing unit and its label help with repairs and servicing near Whitchurch.

- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.

- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.

Looking after it afterwards
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Report drips, noises or error codes straight away
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
- Wash or vacuum the filters as the manual describes
We clear up before we go: sheets removed, packaging cleared up and pipe holes sealed. Outside, the pipework is neatly fixed and protected, so the job looks as tidy as it works.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing you can do. Clean filters keep the air moving and help the system work as designed, so it uses less electricity for the same comfort.
