Frequently Asked Questions About Air Conditioning in Shoreham
Common questions from our Shoreham-by-Sea customers about air conditioning and ventilation services
How much does air conditioning installation cost in Shoreham-by-Sea?
Air conditioning installation in Shoreham-by-Sea typically ranges from £1,599-£1,899 for a single room system, £2,500-£4,000 for multi-split systems covering 2-3 rooms, and £4,500+ for whole-house solutions. Commercial installations for Shoreham businesses vary based on size and requirements. These prices include supply, professional installation, and VAT. We provide free, detailed quotes following a site survey of your Shoreham property.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Shoreham-by-Sea?
Most residential air conditioning installations in Shoreham-by-Sea fall under permitted development and don't require planning permission. However, properties in Shoreham's conservation areas, listed buildings, or installations where the external unit would face a highway may require permission. At Ernest Air Cooling, we're familiar with Adur District Council's specific requirements for Shoreham properties and can handle any necessary planning applications as part of our service.
How long does MVHR installation take in a Shoreham property?
MVHR (Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery) installation in a typical Shoreham-by-Sea property takes 2-5 days depending on the property size and system complexity. For newer properties in areas like Buckingham Park, installation is often straightforward, while period homes in central Shoreham may require more time to ensure discreet integration with the existing architecture. Our Shoreham-based team works efficiently to minimize disruption while ensuring proper system performance.
Which air conditioning brands do you install in Shoreham-by-Sea?
In Shoreham-by-Sea, we install premium air conditioning brands including Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. As certified installers for these manufacturers, we provide extended warranties and manufacturer-backed support specifically for our Shoreham customers. We select brands and models based on your specific requirements, whether you need a system to withstand Shoreham's coastal environment or energy-efficient cooling for your business on Dolphin Road.
How often should I service my air conditioning system in Shoreham?
For optimal performance, we recommend servicing your Shoreham air conditioning system at least once a year. Coastal properties may benefit from twice-yearly checks due to salt air exposure. Regular maintenance helps prevent breakdowns, improves energy efficiency, and ensures your warranty remains valid. We offer flexible servicing plans for both homeowners and businesses in BN43.
