Our air conditioning service in W1K

Most air conditioning needs its own electrical supply from the consumer unit. Adding a new circuit is notifiable building work under Part P unless it’s done by a registered competent person, and as NICEIC approved contractors we can install and certify it as part of the job. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, wall-mounted split systems and VRF systems, and people most often call us about an office, shop or restaurant that’s uncomfortable for staff and customers and a study or office that overheats during the day.

The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems, and we tidy up before we leave.

  1. We survey the rooms and the outside of the property, or work from photos and details for simple jobs.
  2. The quote is fixed and shows the equipment, where each unit goes and what’s included.
  3. The units go up and the pipework, cable and condensate drain are run neatly between them.
  4. We connect the supply, pressure test the pipework and evacuate it before the refrigerant is released.
  5. We commission the system, show you the controls and leave the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty details.

Air conditioning across W1K: local notes

Our air conditioning work across W1K takes in places such as Marylebone, Mayfair and Burlington Estate and the smaller places around them. We cover every place we list for W1K, 6 in all.

From London flats to coastal homes and country cottages, London and the South East have every kind of property. We’re F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps.

Mayfair: Handel Hendrix House, about 0.2 miles north, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it. Around Grosvenor Chapel, a quick check of the listing and conservation maps is part of planning any install.

Owner checks or an engineer?

Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.

Honest limits

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Heat loss through very poor insulation (a system will heat the room, but insulation is a separate job)
  • A ventilation problem rather than a temperature problem
  • Gas boiler or central heating faults (we don’t work on gas boilers)

Why it fails

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 usually what prompts the call, along with keeping equipment rooms at a steady temperature.

Any of these is worth a proper look:

  • A business premises that overheats in summer
  • A loft conversion that’s too warm to use
  • An ageing air conditioning system near the end of its life
  • Fans and portables that do not keep up

Different systems, different jobs

Pipework and condensate drains

Air conditioning takes moisture out of the air when it cools, which the condensate drain takes away. Where it cannot fall naturally to a drain, a condensate pump lifts it and we allow for that in the quote.

Ceiling cassettes

A cassette needs a void above the ceiling for the unit, pipework and drain, and many use a built-in condensate pump to lift the water away. We check the ceiling void on the survey.

Your questions about air conditioning in W1K

How soon will you get back to me?

You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

Is W1K in your area?

Yes. Our engineers work in W1K, as part of our area across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead, West Sussex.

Which brands do you work with?

Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.

Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?

Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

Should I choose wall-mounted, ducted or cassette?

The right one depends on how many rooms you want to cool, how much space there is outside and how visible you want the indoor units to be. Ducted units need a void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling and the survey confirms what’s possible.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
