About air conditioning in GU31
Good air conditioning starts with the right system in the right place. Each room is assessed for its size, windows, direction and how it’s used, then agree where the indoor and outdoor units go and how the pipework, cable and condensate drain will run, all before the price is fixed. We’re often asked to deal with uncertainty over the right type and size of system and fans and portables that don’t keep up, across ceiling cassettes, multi-split systems and VRF systems.
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access, and we clear up before we go.
- We survey the property, or work from your photos for a simple job.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
- Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.

Petersfield: Around St Peter's Church, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install. Plenty of people near Petersfield station split the week between the train and a spare room, and that spare room is often the first to get a unit.
How we price air conditioning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- How many units are involved
- The equipment or parts the job needs
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 07833 053749 for straight advice and a fixed price.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- 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. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.
Leave it or put it right?
The best time to plan air conditioning is before the hot weather, not during it. When people buy in a hurry, the unit is often the wrong size or badly placed, which is costly to undo. A survey now gives time to choose properly.

Safe owner checks
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single flat to a whole estate, you get the same standard: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
Your questions about air conditioning in GU31
Which type of system should I choose?
There’s no single best type. Wall-mounted splits suit single rooms, multi-splits run several rooms from one outdoor unit, ducted systems hide the unit in the ceiling, and cassettes suit offices and larger rooms. We recommend one on the survey and explain why.
Do you work in GU31?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of the South East, and that includes GU31.
How does the warranty work?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
What does it cost to install air conditioning?
Single-room systems start from £1,200 + VAT and are typically up to £2,200 + VAT. The price includes supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation and is fixed after a survey or from pictures.
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
Not necessarily. On a house, air-to-water heat pumps and, since 2025, air-to-air systems that heat as well as cool can be permitted development if they meet the conditions. Cooling-only units, listed buildings, flats and road-facing spots in conservation areas are where it normally comes up and the survey picks it up. This is general information, not legal advice.
