How air conditioning works in TN12
Any installation we do in TN12 follows the same process as everywhere else we work: a site survey, or photos for simple jobs, then a fixed-price quote, the installation, commissioning and F-Gas records. The price is fixed up front and the records are handed over at the end. Common call-outs are for a portable unit with a hose out of the window and commercial rooms that are too warm for staff, across ducted systems, VRF systems and ceiling cassettes.
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems.
- We start by looking at the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go.
- Each room is sized and you get a fixed-price quote setting out the equipment and the unit positions.
- Brackets go on, the units are hung and the refrigerant lines, cable and drain are routed between them.
- Once the electrics are connected, the pipework is tested for leaks and put under vacuum before any refrigerant flows.
- The system is commissioned and checked in every mode, and we hand over the controls, F-Gas records and warranty information.
What affects the price in TN12

Where we install in TN12
Planning rules are the same across England, TN12 included: cooling-only units are not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road.
Enquiries from TN12 get a reply on the working day they arrive. For a breakdown, use the 24/7 line.
Paddock Wood: Homes near St Andrew's Church are a good example of where we look up the heritage status of the building before fixing anything to it. Close to Paddock Wood station? A small study or box room used for work can usually be cooled with a single indoor unit.
Common problems we fix in TN12
In shops, offices and restaurants, the heat comes from customers, staff, equipment and lighting as well as the sun. Keeping staff and customers comfortable is typically what prompts the call, and some rooms need cooling for the equipment as much as the people.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Bedrooms and offices that overheat in summer
- A portable unit with a hose out of the window
- Rooms heated by plug-in heaters
- An ageing air conditioning system near the end of its life
Different systems, different jobs
Multi-split systems
You can mix indoor unit types on many multi-split systems, choosing what suits each room, as the manufacturer allows. We plan the mix on the survey.
Wall-mounted split systems
A single-room split is typically £1,200–£2,200 + VAT, including supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation. Where you sit in that range depends on the pipe run, access and electrics.
Why act early?
For homeowners, timing can matter for VAT: installing energy-saving materials in residential accommodation is zero-rated until 31 March 2027, then 5%. HMRC says most air conditioning units are air source heat pumps, but each case depends on the facts, so we confirm the VAT on your quote. This is general information, not tax advice.
What your quote should include
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- If the figure could change on the day
Let and managed properties
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork, and we will keep everyone informed.
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 arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Your questions about air conditioning in TN12
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, including supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation. The price is fixed before any work starts.
How do I know what size unit to get?
Floor area is only part of it. Glazing, orientation, the roof and what goes on in the room all affect it and the survey covers each of them.
Does air conditioning work as heating?
Normally, yes. A heat pump moves heat from the outside air into the room, so it gives out more heat than the electricity it uses. 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.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Can the outdoor unit go on a roof or at ground level?
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 landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
Will I need planning permission?
Not necessarily. Permitted development can cover a heat pump on a house, including an air-to-air system that heats as well as cools since 2025, provided the conditions are met. Permission is more likely to come up for cooling-only units, listed buildings, flats and road-facing positions in conservation areas, and we tell you at the survey. This is general information, not legal advice.
