Air conditioning questions & answers

Prices start from £1,450 inc. VAT for a 2.5kW unit, supplied and fitted, with free delivery. A 3.5kW unit is from £1,499, a 5kW from £1,750 and a 7kW from £1,950. The right size depends on your room. We confirm the final price after a quick look at your space.

We confirm the final price in writing before any work starts, including any extras like a condensate pump. Ask John if you have any questions about your quote.

No. Delivery is free on every system we supply and fit. The price you're quoted includes the unit, delivery and fitting.

Yes. The quote is free and there's no obligation. We come out, look at the room, recommend the right size, and leave you with a clear price to think about.

Yes. The units we fit work as heat pumps, so they cool in summer and heat in winter. They have four modes — Cool, Heat, Auto and Fan. Auto mode switches between heating and cooling to hold the temperature you set, and Dry mode takes excess moisture out of the air, and Fan circulates the air without running the outdoor unit.

Yes. A wall-mounted unit heats a conservatory on cold days and cools it when it turns into a greenhouse in summer. One unit keeps the space usable all year round.

It can heat a room on its own, but most people use it alongside their central heating — to warm a single room quickly, or to keep a conservatory or garden room usable in winter.

The units we fit use inverter technology, which means they adjust their output to match the room rather than switching on and off. How much it costs to run depends on the size of the unit, how much you use it, your room and your electricity tariff. We won't quote running-cost figures we can't stand behind — call John and he'll talk you through what to expect.

Inverter units are designed to run efficiently by matching their output to the room. The actual cost depends on how often and how hard you run it, the size of the unit and your tariff. We're honest about this — we won't promise savings we can't prove.

Most home installations are completed in about a day. We leave the room as we found it, with neat pipework and trunking, and walk you through how to use it before we leave.

On the ground, on a wall bracket, on a balcony or on a flat roof — wherever works best for your property. We'll talk you through the options before any drilling starts.

Air conditioning produces a small amount of water when it runs. If the unit can't drain that water away by gravity, a condensate pump pumps it to a suitable drain. It's a £130 add-on and we'll tell you if your install needs one before we start.

Warranty details are confirmed with your quote — ask John on 07782 205207. We'll tell you exactly what's covered before any work starts.

Most units benefit from a service once a year to keep them running at their best. We keep a record and remind you when the next one is due, so you don't have to remember.

We clean the filters, coils and fins; check refrigerant levels, leaks and seals; check airflow; clean and tighten electrical connections; check thermostat accuracy; and carry out a general wear inspection. It also catches poor cooling, water leaks and unusual noises before they become bigger issues.

We cover Essex & surrounding counties — for homes and businesses. If you're not sure, send your postcode and we'll confirm.
