Air conditioning in SE22: how it works
Across SE22, every installation follows the same steps: survey, fixed-price quote, a neat installation, full commissioning and the F-Gas paperwork. You know the price before any work starts and the paperwork is in your hands when we finish. The work covers VRF systems, air-to-air heat pumps and multi-split systems, and people most often call us about uncertainty over the right type and size of system and commercial rooms that are too warm for staff.
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. The visit takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access.
- We survey the rooms and the outside of the property, or work from pictures and details for simple jobs.
- We size the system for each room, then send a fixed-price quote with the units and where they go.
- On the day, we fit the indoor and outdoor units and run the pipework, cable and condensate drain.
- The electrical supply is connected, and the refrigerant circuit is pressure tested and evacuated.
- We commission the system, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty details.
What affects the price in SE22

Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Air conditioning across SE22: local notes
Our air conditioning work across SE22 takes in places such as East Dulwich, Herne Hill and Camberwell and the smaller places around them. We cover every place we list for SE22, 7 in all.
Enquiries from SE22 get a reply on the working day they arrive. For a breakdown, use the 24/7 line.
Herne Hill: If you commute from North Dulwich station and work from home on other days, one wall-mounted unit in the home office is often all that’s needed. Around Saint Faith's, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install.
What happens if it’s left?
For a home or business in SE22, booking the survey now gives time to plan. Installation takes a day or more, depending on the number of rooms, the pipe routes and the access, and we agree a date that suits you once you’re happy with the quote.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- Whether the quote is a fixed price
When something else is needed
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A ventilation problem rather than a temperature problem
- A building fabric problem such as single glazing or no loft insulation
- Damp from leaks or a lack of ventilation
Signs you need air conditioning
Computers, screens, lighting and people all give off heat. A home office with a couple of screens, or a meeting room with a few people in it, warms up quickly, even when it is not especially hot outside.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Too many options and no clear advice
- An office, shop or restaurant that’s uncomfortable for staff and customers
- A loft room or top floor that bakes in summer
- An old system that needs replacing
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. A few tips:
- File the paperwork with the manual
- Never run the system with the filters out
- Close windows and doors while the system is cooling
- Use moderate settings for comfort and economy
Commissioning is the last stage: every mode is tested before we go. We check it’s running as the manufacturer intends, then show you the controls and the timer so you know how to get the best from it.
Clean the filters regularly, not just at the service. Blocked filters cut airflow and make the system work harder, which costs you more to run.
Your questions about air conditioning in SE22
How long will the installation take?
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 there are no surprises.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
Can the outdoor unit go on a roof or at ground level?
Wall brackets, ground level and flat roofs are all options, wherever the pipe route, airflow and servicing access work best. We also think about noise near bedrooms and neighbours and position can affect planning.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Can air conditioning heat my home as well?
Most of the time, yes: modern splits are usually heat pumps, so they heat as well as cool. The Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. We confirm the heating function of the model we quote.
Can you fit air conditioning in a leasehold flat?
That depends on the lease, the building and where the outdoor unit could go. Balconies, flat roofs and rear walls can all work, subject to consent and the survey looks at every option. This is general information, not legal advice.
