How air conditioning works in SW17
Not sure what you need, or where it would go? Just give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with pictures of the rooms and the outside of the property, and we’ll reply the same working day about a survey or a fixed-price quote. Typical jobs include an office, shop or restaurant that’s uncomfortable for staff and customers and a loft room or top floor that bakes in summer, across air-to-air heat pumps, VRF systems and ceiling cassettes.
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can typically work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems.
- You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- Connections are made, checked for leaks and pulled down to a vacuum.
- We commission, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas and warranty paperwork.
What affects the price in SW17

Near you in Colliers Wood
Around Colliers Wood, our work takes us to homes and businesses near St Nicholas, The Royal Standard pub and Graveney School. Also close by are Figge's Marsh (0.5 miles south-east), Ensham School (0.5 miles north-east) and Sellincourt Primary School (less than half a mile north). There’s a railway station in Colliers Wood itself: Tooting station. A little further out are Grove Hospital (0.6 miles north) and Wandle Industrial Museum (1.2 miles south). Not far away are Henman Hill and Myrna Close.
Where we install in SW17
Planning rules are the same across England, SW17 included: cooling-only units are not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road.
We’re based in East Grinstead and work across London and the South East, SW17 included. Each job starts with a survey and a fixed-price quote.
Colliers Wood: Close to Tooting station? A small study or box room used for work can usually be cooled with a single indoor unit. Southside House, about 2.8 miles 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.
After we’ve gone
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Clean the filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
- Keep to the service interval the manufacturer recommends
- Use moderate settings for comfort and economy
- Flag any change in how the system sounds or performs
An annual service keeps the system running efficiently, and some manufacturers make regular servicing a condition of their warranty. We can remind you when it’s due, so it does not get forgotten.
Book an annual service. A service cleans what you can’t reach and picks up faults before they stop the system, and it keeps any warranty servicing conditions in order.
Rented and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Running several properties is easier with one contractor. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
System by system
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.
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
Bigger systems in buildings come with extra duties, such as a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange the inspection and get the system ready for it.
Common problems we fix in SW17
Bedrooms that are too warm at night are a frequent reason for a call. Once a bedroom has soaked up heat during the day, opening a window may not bring the temperature down far enough, especially on a still night.
The things we’re asked about most include:
- Expensive direct electric heating
- Fans and portables that do not keep up
- Rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night
- Uncertainty over the right type and size of system
Common questions in SW17
Do you protect the property while you work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Is air conditioning possible in a flat?
Often, yes, but there are extra steps. You’ll normally need the landlord’s or management company’s consent for the outdoor unit and the pipe route, so check the lease. Planning rules for flats are tighter too, and we flag anything that may need permission. This is general information, not legal advice.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Where does the outdoor unit go?
We agree it with you on the survey. It needs space around it to breathe and room for an engineer to service it, and a position facing a road can bring extra planning considerations. We explain the options and any permissions to check.
Do you work in SW17?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of the South East, and that includes SW17.
