System by system
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.
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 route from the outdoor unit to each room is the main variable.
Air conditioning for homes and businesses in Winnersh
Wall-mounted, multi-split, ducted and cassette systems are all part of what we install, with VRF for larger buildings. Which one suits you depends on the space, the building and how much of the unit you want to see and we talk you through it on the survey. Most split systems we fit in Winnersh are reversible: the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes called air conditioning, which is why many owners use theirs all year.
In a place like Winnersh, the outdoor unit often goes on the ground at the side or rear of the house, where it’s out of sight from the road and easy to service.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Air conditioning in Winnersh: the local picture
About 36% of homes in Winnersh and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 66% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Newer homes typically have cavity walls and loft space that make pipe runs easier, though some estates have planning conditions or covenants worth checking. With homes like that, finding a sensible outdoor unit position is rarely hard, and a multi-split lets two or more rooms run off it.
Older streets near St Mary the Virgin may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes. Close to Winnersh station? A small study or box room used for work can usually be cooled with a single indoor unit.

How we price air conditioning
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but every job is priced on its own. What we look at:
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- What kind of system it is
- What state the existing equipment is in
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring us on 07833 053749 for straight advice and a fixed price.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- Your consumer unit or fuse board

FAQs for Winnersh
Do you cover Winnersh for air conditioning?
Yes, Winnersh is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Winnersh?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. A conservation area takes in the middle of Winnersh. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones can’t, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the local planning authority (for Winnersh, normally Wokingham council).
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
What warranty do I get?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. We load the van from the survey notes so the work in Winnersh can be done in one go where possible.
- We survey the property, or work from your photos for a simple job.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it

Every quote shows the VAT clearly, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Advice
What else we do in Winnersh
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Damp or condensation caused by leaks or poor ventilation in the building (that needs the cause fixing)
- Stuffy rooms that need fresh air rather than cooling
- A room that cannot take an outdoor unit or pipe route without the landlord’s, management company’s or council’s consent (that consent comes first)
If you’re not sure, just ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

A customer’s words
“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.”
