Common questions in Earl's Court
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Earl's Court?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. There’s a conservation area, the Nevern Square Conservation Area, close to central Earl's Court. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not 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 the planning department at Kensington and Chelsea council, typically the authority for Earl's Court.
Can you do commercial air conditioning in Earl's Court?
Yes. Earl's Court is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
How does the warranty work?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Earl's Court and across Greater London. Let us know who the records should go to.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
About our commercial air conditioning in Earl's Court
Server rooms and comms rooms need cooling that keeps going. We look at the heat load and how the room is used, and can discuss backup units, so a single fault doesn’t leave the room without cooling. The work covers multi-split systems, ceiling cassettes and wall-mounted split systems, and the jobs we see most are older systems on refrigerants that are getting scarcer and installs that must fit around trading hours.
For a business in Earl's Court, the legal side matters too: F-gas leak checks on larger systems, and TM44 inspections where total cooling output is over 12 kW. We keep the F-gas records and flag what’s coming up.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

How we price commercial air conditioning
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- What state the existing equipment is in
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed-price quote, ring us on 07833 053749 or send an email, and we will talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Earl's Court
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Business air conditioning in Earl's Court
There are about 1,299 restaurants, cafés and canteens, about 108 hotels and guest houses and about 97 schools and colleges within about 1.5 miles of central Earl's Court, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens and dining rooms gain heat quickly, and hotels need quiet units in guest rooms, so each is designed for its use. About 72% of homes in Earl's Court and the neighbourhoods around it were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the 2021 Census found about 86% of households live in flats. In mixed streets, commercial outdoor units have to be placed and sized with the homes nearby in mind. London commercial jobs normally involve a landlord or managing agent, and plant space is often tight.
If you run a surgery, clinic or pharmacy in the area around Princess Beatrice Hospital, about within half a mile south-east, cleanable, quiet units and regular maintenance matter. For a church or hall like St Cuthbert's, any outdoor unit needs the right consents first.

The process
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. The more we can see beforehand, the smoother the visit to Earl's Court will be.
- First comes a survey, looking at the building and how it’s occupied.
- You get our recommendation and a fixed price.
- We agree the timing, with evening, weekend or phased work as needed.
- We install the units, pipework, drainage, electrics and controls.
- We commission the system and hand over the F-gas records and controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
Getting a quote
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. 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 us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.

Leave it or put it right?
An older system on R410A can be kept running, but top-up refrigerant is getting scarcer and dearer. Planning a replacement on your own timetable beats replacing it after a major failure. In London, hot spells can bring a rush of calls, so planning the work in Earl's Court before summer avoids the wait.
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
