Air conditioning across N4: what to expect
A new system normally needs a dedicated circuit from the fuse board. 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. Common call-outs are for a loft room or top floor that bakes in summer and expensive direct electric heating, on ceiling cassettes, air-to-air heat pumps and VRF systems.
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system.
- We survey the rooms and the outside of the property, or work from photos and details for simple jobs.
- Cooling loads are worked out room by room, and the written price names the make, the model and every position.
- The indoor unit is fixed in place, the outside unit positioned, and the connecting runs put in tidily.
- Power is wired in, the joints are proved leak-tight under pressure and a vacuum pump draws out air and moisture.
- The system is commissioned and checked in every mode, and we hand over the controls, F-Gas records and warranty information.
What you will pay
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.
What you get with us
- Covering London and the South East
- Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba and more
- MCS certification for heat pump work
- Diagnosis first, then a fixed price

Air conditioning around N4
Planning rules are the same across England, N4 included: cooling-only units aren’t covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road.
Across London and the South East, we reply to enquiries the same working day, and our emergency line is open 24/7.
Finsbury Park: Living close to St John the Evangelist? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is. Plenty of people near Finsbury Park station split the week between the train and a spare room, and that spare room is often the first to get a unit.
Leave it or put it right?
Where the outdoor unit goes matters to you and to the neighbours. Placing it well keeps noise away from bedrooms and boundaries and makes servicing easier, and it can affect whether planning permission is needed. It’s agreed on the survey, not on the day.
Comparing quotes
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
- What the manufacturer’s warranty covers and for how long
- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
- What paperwork you will receive afterwards
Rented and managed buildings
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.
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
Pricing air conditioning in N4
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- What state the existing equipment is in
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The make and model of the system, from the label
Quotes do not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
What the work involves, system by system
Wall-mounted split systems
For one room, a wall-mounted split is often the simplest answer. The indoor unit sits high on a wall, the outdoor unit goes outside, and the two are joined by insulated pipework, a cable and a condensate drain, with the route agreed on the survey.
Multi-split systems
With a multi-split, one outdoor unit serves two or more rooms. It’s a neat answer when space outside is limited and several rooms need it, with each room controlled separately.
Common questions in N4
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
How quickly will you reply?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a system failing in a server room or water leaking from a unit, ring our 24/7 line and we will agree what happens next.
Which type of air conditioning is best?
Number of rooms, space outside and how much of the unit you want to see all decide it. Ducted units need a void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling and the survey confirms what’s possible.
How long does it take to fit air conditioning?
It takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access. We confirm the time when we quote, so you can plan around it.
How does the warranty work?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some brands make regular servicing a condition, so keep your service records.
Will you need to do electrical work?
Most of the time. The fuse board is checked on the survey, and any electrical work goes on the quote and we install and certify the circuit as NICEIC approved contractors.
