Air conditioning across EC4V: what to expect

Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Send a few pictures of the rooms and the outside walls when you phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier, and you will hear back from us the same working day about a survey or a fixed-price quote. Common call-outs are for an old system that needs replacing and a home office that warms up with screens and equipment, across air-to-air heat pumps, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems.

We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access.

  1. Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
  2. Then the prescription: the right system and size for each room, on a fixed-price quote.
  3. The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.
  4. Testing: the circuit is pressure tested and evacuated before the refrigerant is released.
  5. Finally, the clean bill of health: commissioning, the controls explained and your paperwork handed over.

What you’ll pay

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 unsure, phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.

Air conditioning across EC4V: local notes

Our air conditioning work across EC4V takes in places such as Bankside and the smaller places around them. Every place on our EC4V list (2 in all) is covered.

City of London: If your home is in one of the older streets near St Olave Old Jewry, it’s worth checking whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before an install. Plenty of people near London Cannon Street station split the week between the train and a spare room, and that spare room is often the first to get a unit.

What happens if it’s left?

Fans and portables move warm air around rather than removing it. A fixed system removes the heat to the outside, runs more quietly in the room and can typically heat as well, so it works for you in winter as well.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
  • What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
  • Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
  • Whether the quote is a fixed price

When it’s something else

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Central heating repairs
  • Damp from leaks or a lack of ventilation
  • Work that needs permission from a landlord or the council

Signs you need air conditioning

Loft rooms and top floors tend to suffer most. The roof takes the full force of the sun, and warm air rises from the floors below, so a bedroom or office under the roof can stay warm well into the night.

These are the situations we see most often:

  • Old electric heaters you’d like to replace with something more efficient
  • Commercial rooms that are too warm for staff
  • A portable unit with a hose out of the window
  • Rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night

Let and managed properties

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.

From a single flat to a whole estate, the approach is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.

Questions from EC4V

How do you size the system?

We size each room on the survey, from its size, glazing, orientation and use. Too small, and it runs flat out; too big, and it switches on and off and wastes energy, so we explain why we’ve chosen a particular output.

How long does air conditioning installation take?

It takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system. The survey tells us how long your installation will need so there are no surprises.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in EC4V and across City of London. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.

What warranty do I get?

It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.

Can I use air conditioning to heat a room?

Yes, most modern split systems run as heat pumps, so they can heat a room in winter. The Energy Saving Trust points out that an air-to-air heat pump is often just called air conditioning. Some cooling-only models exist, so we confirm it for the model on your quote.

Can you fit air conditioning in a leasehold flat?

Often, yes, but there are extra steps. Leaseholders normally need consent from the landlord or management company for an outdoor unit and holes through outside walls and the lease will say. Permitted development rules for flats are also tighter than for houses, and we flag anything that may need permission. This is general information, not legal advice.
