Our 24/7 emergency line is there if something goes wrong.

If you run a village hall or similar building near East Dean, heating and cooling that warms up fast suits a space used on and off, and it can heat as well as cool.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

FAQs for East Dean
Is East Dean within the area you cover?
Yes. East Dean is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in East Dean?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central East Dean sits inside the East Dean Conservation Area. 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 Wealden council, which is normally the planning authority for East Dean.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
What F-gas duties does a business have?
Operators of systems from 5 tCO2e upwards need leak checks and records. Checks are at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e and we carry out the checks and keep the records.
Fixed-price quotes for commercial air conditioning in East Dean
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The condition of any existing system

Before you get in touch
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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.
Leave it or put it right?
