Air conditioning across DA5: what to expect
Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Just call 07833 053749 or send an email with pictures of the rooms and the outside of the property, and we’ll reply the same working day about a survey or a fixed-price quote. The work covers ceiling cassettes, multi-split systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about bedrooms and offices that overheat in summer and an office, shop or restaurant that’s uncomfortable for staff and customers.
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. The visit takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems.
- We survey the property, or work from your photos for a simple job.
- The system is sized, positions are agreed and the price is fixed.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- We run and connect the pipes, cable and drain, then pressure test and evacuate the circuit.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.

Air conditioning across DA5
In DA5, as across England, the same permitted development rules apply: cooling-only units aren’t covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road.
From London flats to coastal homes and country cottages, London and the South East have every kind of property. We’re F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps.
Bexley: About 0.9 miles north stands Red House. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one. Living close to Parish Church of St John the Evangelist? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.
Aftercare tips
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:
- Keep the handover documents somewhere safe
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter
- Keep the room closed while it runs
- Have the system serviced once a year
Questions after the installation go to the same number. Tell us what the system is doing, and any code on the display and we’ll help you sort it out.
Have the system serviced once a year. The engineer cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small problems early and keeps the warranty paperwork right where servicing is a condition.
Pricing air conditioning in DA5
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- The size of the job
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- What electrical work the job needs
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re unsure, phone us on 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Send what you can of the following:
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
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. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Leave it or put it right?
If you’re thinking about air conditioning for a property in DA5, there’s no need to wait for a heatwave. Installation takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system, and we agree a date that suits you once you are happy with the quote.
What your quote should include
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
- If the figure could change on the day
Managing agents and facilities teams in DA5
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is and we’re happy to deal with whoever it is.
DA5: your questions answered
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
It depends on the system and the property. Heat pumps on houses in England can be permitted development when they meet set conditions, including the MCS 020(a) noise check, while a unit that only cools is not covered and needs checking with the council. Listed buildings, conservation areas and flats have extra limits. This is general information, not legal advice.
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, 24/7. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Do you work on all makes?
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 tell you why.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Most systems need their own supply from the consumer unit. Under Part P, a new circuit has to be notified unless a registered competent person does it, and as NICEIC approved contractors we install and certify it as part of the job.
