Air conditioning in HP19

Air conditioning across HP19: what to expect

Most air conditioning needs its own electrical supply from the consumer unit. Under Part P, a new circuit is notifiable unless a registered competent person does it, and as NICEIC approved contractors we can install and certify it as part of the job. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ceiling cassettes and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are a loft conversion that’s too warm to use and uncertainty over the right type and size of system.

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system.

1. We survey the rooms and the outside of the property, or work from photos and details for simple jobs.
2. Cooling loads are worked out room by room, and the written price names the make, the model and every position.
3. The units go up and the pipework, cable and condensate drain are run neatly between them.
4. Power is wired in, the joints are proved leak-tight under pressure and a vacuum pump draws out air and moisture.
5. Finally, it’s commissioned, tested in each mode and handed over with the F-Gas records.

Looking after it afterwards

Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

• Keep the F-Gas records, commissioning details and warranty information together
• Flag any change in how the system sounds or performs
• Have the system serviced once a year
• Clean the filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use

Commissioning is the last stage: every mode is tested before we go. Once it’s running properly, we take you through the controls and settings so you know how to get the best from it.

Keep the outdoor unit clear. Anything piled against it, from leaves to garden furniture, reduces the airflow, and the system has to work harder as a result.
