Our air conditioning service in CM20

We install leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. We recommend a model on the survey and explain why it suits the room, and the manufacturer’s warranty terms are set out on your quote. We’re often asked to deal with a business premises that overheats in summer and fans and portables that don’t keep up, across wall-mounted split systems, multi-split systems and VRF systems.

Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. The work itself takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access.

  1. We survey the property, or work from your photos for a simple job.
  2. Each room is sized and the unit positions agreed, then you get a fixed-price quote.
  3. Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
  4. Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
  5. It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.

What affects the price in CM20

Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.

Where we install in CM20

In CM20, as across England, the same permitted development rules apply: an air-to-air system that heats as well as cools can be permitted development on a house, but cooling-only units, listed buildings and outdoor units facing a road in conservation areas need more care.

Message us from anywhere in CM20 and you will hear back the same working day. For a breakdown, use the 24/7 line.

Little Parndon: Homes near Church of St Mary are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it. Close to Harlow Town station? A small study or box room used for work can usually be cooled with a single indoor unit.

Why deal with it now?

Size matters more than brand. Too small, and it runs flat out without catching up; too big, and it switches on and off and wastes energy. Sizing each room properly on the survey avoids both.

What your quote should include

  • Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
  • What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
  • The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
  • Whether the quote is a fixed price

What the work involves, system by system

Electrical supply

The fuse board is looked at during the survey, so the quote covers any electrical work needed. Older boards sometimes need more work to take a new circuit and we will tell you if yours does.

Wall-mounted split systems

Single-room split systems are typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, with supply, fitting, commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork included. Where you sit in that range depends on the pipe run, access and electrics.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork, and we will keep everyone informed.

If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.

Looking after your system

A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:

  • Avoid setting it far colder than you need
  • File the paperwork with the manual
  • Refit filters properly after cleaning
  • Flag any change in how the system sounds or performs

Questions after the installation go to the same number. Tell us what the system is doing, and any code on the display, and we will talk it through with you.

Set it and leave it. Choose the right mode and a comfortable temperature rather than the lowest setting, and close windows and doors while it’s cooling.

CM20: your questions answered

Which type of system should I choose?

There’s no single best type. A split suits one room, a multi-split several, a ducted system hides the unit, and a cassette spreads air across larger rooms. We recommend one on the survey and explain why.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.

Can you set up regular servicing?

Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Every visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.

How much is air conditioning for one room?

Single-room systems start from £1,200 + VAT and are typically up to £2,200 + VAT. That covers supply, installation, commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork and is fixed after a survey or from photos.

Are you F-Gas certified?

AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.

How do I know what size unit to get?

We size each room on the survey, from its size, glazing, orientation and use. An undersized unit never catches up, and an oversized one cycles and wastes energy and we explain the output we recommend.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
