Air conditioning in ME13: how it works
Most modern split systems run as heat pumps, so they can heat as well as cool. The Energy Saving Trust recognises that air-to-air heat pumps often go by the name air conditioning, so a well-chosen unit can be useful in winter as well as summer. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, wall-mounted split systems and ducted systems, and people most often call us about too many options and no clear advice and an ageing air conditioning system near the end of its life.
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer.
- We survey the rooms and the outside of the property, or work from photos and details for simple jobs.
- Each room is sized and you get a fixed-price quote setting out the equipment and the unit positions.
- Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
- Once the electrics are connected, the pipework is tested for leaks and put under vacuum before any refrigerant flows.
- Last comes the run-up: every mode checked, the controls explained and the paperwork left with you.

Faversham: With historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens about 3.5 miles south-west, it’s a reminder that older homes nearby may be listed, which changes the planning rules. If you work from home near Faversham station, a home office that overheats is one of the easiest rooms to cool.

Questions to ask before you book
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
- Whether extra work needs your approval first
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
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 escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
Aftercare tips
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep the indoor unit’s filters clean
- Avoid setting it far colder than you need
- Shut doors and windows when it’s on
- Tell us if the unit starts to leak, rattle or show a code
The work area is left tidy: sheets removed, packaging cleared up and pipe holes sealed. Pipework outside is covered in trunking or insulated and neatly fixed, so the job looks as tidy as it works.
Use sensible settings. Choose the right mode and a comfortable temperature rather than the lowest setting and keep doors and windows shut while it runs.
FAQs for ME13
Do I need a new electrical circuit?
In most cases. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote, and our NICEIC approval covers the installation and certificate.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Can air conditioning heat my home as well?
Most of the time, yes. Running as a heat pump, it moves heat in from outside rather than making it from electricity alone. If you want it to replace your main heating, ask about air-to-air heat pumps and the conditions for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. You get a written record of each visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. That is not optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
