Our air conditioning service in SS17
Think of it as diagnose, treat and sign off: survey first, install second, commission and hand over last. At sign-off, the system is tested in each mode, the controls are explained and the F-Gas records are left with you. The work covers multi-split systems, ducted systems and VRF systems, and people most often call us about fans and portables that don’t keep up and rooms heated by plug-in heaters.
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes anything from a day for one room to several days for a multi-room or ducted system, and we tidy up before we leave.
- We survey the property, or work from your photos for a simple job.
- The system is sized, positions are agreed and the price is fixed.
- On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
- Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.
What affects the price in SS17
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Getting a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Air conditioning around SS17
Across SS17, from Stanford-le-Hope, Balstonia and Corringham to the villages, homes range from older terraces and cottages to new estates and flats. Each install starts with a survey of the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
Refrigerant work is done by F-gas qualified engineers for a certified company, and the electrics come under our NICEIC approval, in SS17 as everywhere else. Near the coast in SS17, outdoor units last longer with shelter from sea wind and a yearly service, and some manufacturers offer corrosion-protected coils.
Stanford-le-Hope: Living close to St John the Evangelist? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is. If you commute from Stanford-Le-Hope station and work from home on other days, one wall-mounted unit in the home office is often all that’s needed.
System by system
Ducted systems
Ducted air conditioning hides the indoor unit in a ceiling void or loft, with only neat grilles showing in the room. It’s popular where people don’t want a unit on the wall.
Electrical supply
Most systems need their own circuit from the consumer unit. We are NICEIC approved, so we fit and certify the circuit ourselves, which takes care of the Part P notification.
Let and managed properties
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.
Whether it’s one property or many, the approach is the same: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
Safe owner checks
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Leave it or put it right?
Planning ahead beats a rushed decision in a heatwave. A rushed choice is often the wrong size or in the wrong place, which is costly to undo. Booking the survey early gives you time to weigh up the options.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the figure could change on the day
- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
Common questions in SS17
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Which accreditations do you hold?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Where will you put the outdoor unit?
The position is agreed on the survey, not on the day. It must have clear airflow and space for servicing, and walls or roofs facing a road can raise planning questions. We explain the options and any permissions to check.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat?
In many cases, but permissions come first. Leaseholders normally need consent from the landlord or management company for an outdoor unit and holes through outside walls, so check the lease. Permitted development rules for flats are also tighter than for houses, so we point out anything that may need permission on the survey. This is general information, not legal advice.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before we start, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.
Does air conditioning work as heating?
In most cases, 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.
