About air conditioning in OX20

Good air conditioning starts with the right system in the right place. We look at each room’s size, glazing, orientation and use, and we agree the unit positions and the route for the pipes, cable and drain before you get a fixed-price quote. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, VRF systems and ceiling cassettes, and common reasons people get in touch are a business premises that overheats in summer and a loft room or top floor that bakes in summer.

We keep the work area tidy as we go, 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 about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems.

  1. We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
  2. You receive one fixed figure covering the kit, the fitting and the positions we agreed.
  3. The indoor unit is fixed in place, the outside unit positioned, and the connecting runs put in tidily.
  4. We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
  5. 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

No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.

Air conditioning across OX20: local notes

From Woodstock, Wootton and Bladon outwards, OX20 has every kind of home. Each install starts with a survey of the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.

We reply to enquiries from OX20 the same working day, with a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns.

Woodstock: Blenheim Palace, about 0.8 miles south-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. Living close to Church of St Mary Magdalene? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.

What the work involves, system by system

Ceiling cassettes

Cassettes are good at even airflow across a large floor area with just a grille visible in the ceiling.

Multi-split systems

With a multi-split, one outdoor unit serves two or more rooms. It saves wall space outside and suits homes where several rooms need cooling and each indoor unit has its own controls.

Pricing air conditioning in OX20

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How far the pipework has to run, and where
  • Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
  • Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
  • The number of rooms, units or zones

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and the price is agreed before work begins.

What to send for a quote

Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:

  • Any error code or flashing light on the display
  • The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
  • Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
  • Your installation or service records

VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.

What happens if it’s left?

A system that is the wrong size never works well. An undersized unit runs hard and still cannot keep the room cool; too big, and it switches on and off and wastes energy. Getting the sizing right at the survey stage avoids both problems.

Comparing quotes

  • If the quote is based on a survey, photos or a diagnosis
  • What paperwork you will receive afterwards
  • What’s in the price and what is not
  • Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.

Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.

Common questions in OX20

Does servicing affect my warranty?

Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so check the terms or ask us. Keep every service record either way.

Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?

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. The survey ends with a recommendation and the reasons.

Do you work on systems someone else installed?

Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.

Do you work on all makes?

We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.

What warranty do I get?

It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer, so keep your service records.

Does air conditioning need its own electrical supply?

In most cases, yes: a dedicated circuit is needed. Under Part P, a new circuit has to be notified unless a registered competent person does it, and we’re NICEIC approved, so we can install and certify it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in OX20 and across Oxfordshire. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
