About air conditioning in TN1
Single-room systems are typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, two rooms on a multi-split £2,800–£4,500 + VAT, and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT. Supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation are all included, and commercial VRF systems are priced after a survey. The work covers ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems, and people most often call us about an ageing air conditioning system near the end of its life and bedrooms and offices that overheat in summer.
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we’ve done.
- We survey the property, or work from your pictures for a simple job.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- Sheets go down first, then the indoor unit and the condenser are mounted.
- Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
- The system is commissioned, the controls explained and the F-Gas records handed over.
What affects the price in TN1
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
Why book with us
- Every job looked at before it’s priced

Getting a price
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 in writing rather than guess. To get one, phone us on 07833 053749 or send an email.

Air conditioning across TN1
From Royal Tunbridge Wells, Broadwater Down and High Brooms outwards, TN1 has every kind of home. We survey every property before we quote.
We’re based in East Grinstead and work across London and the South East, TN1 included. Every job starts with a site survey or photos, then a fixed-price quote.
Royal Tunbridge Wells: If you commute from Tunbridge Wells station and work from home on other days, one wall-mounted unit in the home office is often all that is needed. About 3.6 miles west stands Groombridge Place. Listed homes in any area need consent first, so tell us if yours is one.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by air conditioning, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Damp or condensation caused by leaks or poor ventilation in the building (that needs the cause fixing)
- Problems with a gas boiler or the radiators
- A lack of fresh air (most split systems recirculate room air rather than bringing fresh air in, which is a job for ventilation)
Signs you need air conditioning
Most overheating comes from heat gained through the day. Sun through large windows, roof lights and glazed doors is the biggest source in many rooms, and the heat lingers long after the sun has moved round.
The things we’re asked about most are:
- Portable units that are noisy and barely cope
- Too many options and no clear advice
- A loft conversion that’s too warm to use
- An old system that needs replacing
System by system
Ceiling cassettes
Ceiling cassettes fit into the ceiling and push air out in several directions and they’re a common choice for offices, shops and larger rooms.
Ducted systems
A ducted system needs a ceiling void or loft deep enough for the unit and ducts, and access for servicing. We check that on the survey before recommending one.
Safe owner checks
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Do not move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
TN1: your questions answered
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them and stick to the interval they set.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we’ll tell you what to do first.
What does it cost to install air conditioning?
For one room, a split system is typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT. A two-room multi-split is typically £2,800–£4,500 + VAT, and three to five rooms £4,500–£8,500 + VAT, with supply, fitting, commissioning and F-Gas documentation included. The price is fixed before work begins.
When will I hear back?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
