Air Conditioning Outside Surrey
Air Con Surrey is run from Guildford by an F-Gas qualified engineer. Six towns just over the Surrey border sit inside the 35-minute range we work from, and each has its own page below. Everywhere else in Hampshire, Berkshire, Sussex, Kent and London, your enquiry goes to vetted partner installers who work those areas every day — and we tell you that is what is happening.
Why these six towns, and not the rest
We drew the line the only honest way: by car, from Guildford town centre, in free-flowing traffic. Everything within about 35 minutes is on our patch. That takes in most of Surrey and six towns across the border — Aldershot, Farnborough and Fleet in Hampshire, Bracknell and Windsor in Berkshire, and Kingston upon Thames in south-west London.
The same rule works the other way. A handful of east Surrey towns — Banstead, Caterham, Oxted, Horley and Lingfield — fall just outside it, so enquiries from there are handled through partner installers, with the Surrey page as the right place for local prices and planning notes.
A radius is not a promise of a date. In a hot spell every engineer in the South East is booked solid within days, ours included, which is one reason we keep partner installers on hand for the busiest weeks as well as for distant postcodes.
Hampshire, Berkshire, Sussex, Kent and London
Beyond the six border towns we do not run local pages, because we would be describing areas we do not work in ourselves. What we do instead is simpler: when you ask for quotes from Basingstoke, Winchester, Southampton or Portsmouth; from Reading or Wokingham; from Crawley, Horsham, Brighton or Worthing; from Sevenoaks or Tunbridge Wells; or from anywhere in London beyond Kingston, your enquiry is passed to independent, F-Gas certified installers through our business partners. They may pay us a fee for the introduction. That fee never changes the price you are quoted, and the quote, the work and the contract are theirs, not ours — see how we get paid.
Our cost guides apply wherever you are. Installed prices for a single split or a multi-split, servicing costs and the grant and VAT position are national ranges, with London and the inner South East usually at the upper end.
What to check whoever turns up
- F-Gas certification. Anyone who handles refrigerant must hold it. Ask for the certificate number and check it before work starts — our F-Gas guide explains what it covers.
- A written quote that shows the VAT. Installation of a fixed heat-pump system in a home can carry 0% VAT until 31 March 2027; servicing and repairs do not. Compare totals, not headline figures.
- Three like-for-like quotes. Same rooms, same brand tier, same pipe run. The spread between quotes is usually the single biggest saving available.
- Who you are contracting with. If an installer was introduced through us, the contract is between you and them. We are happy to hear how it went either way.
