Air conditioning across NW5: 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. The work covers ceiling cassettes, air-to-air heat pumps and ducted systems, and people most often call us about a business premises that overheats in summer and fans and portables that don’t keep up.
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access, and we tidy up before we leave.
- First comes a site survey, or photos and measurements for a straightforward job.
- We size the system for each room, then send a fixed-price quote with the units and where they go.
- The indoor unit is fixed in place, the outside unit positioned, and the connecting runs put in tidily.
- We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
- We commission the system, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty details.
How we quote
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all make a difference.

Air conditioning around NW5
In NW5, we install in places such as Kentish Town, Chalk Farm and Tufnell Park and well beyond. We cover every place we list for NW5, 10 in all.
An F-Gas certified company does the refrigerant side, and the electrics come under our NICEIC approval, in NW5 as everywhere else.
Kentish Town: Keats House, about 1.2 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it. Homes near Church of the Holy Trinity with St Barnabas are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it.
Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning in NW5
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- Your installation or service records
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from photos and measurements. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
Why act early?
For homeowners, timing can matter for VAT: installing energy-saving materials in residential accommodation is zero-rated until 31 March 2027, then 5%. Whether a particular system qualifies depends on the facts and we confirm the VAT on your quote. This is general information, not tax advice.
What your quote should include
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
Managing agents and facilities teams in NW5
For anyone managing more than one building, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Owner checks or an engineer?
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
NW5: your questions answered
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Does air conditioning work as heating?
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. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.
Does air conditioning need its own electrical supply?
Normally, yes. We check your consumer unit on the survey and include any electrical work on the quote and we install and certify the circuit as NICEIC approved contractors.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?
It depends on the rooms and the building. A split suits one room, a multi-split several, a ducted system hides the unit, and a cassette spreads air across larger rooms. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Where will you put the outdoor unit?
We agree it with you on the survey. It must have clear airflow and space for servicing, and a position facing a road can bring extra planning considerations. We explain the options and any permissions to check.
