Trusted and certified by leading industry bodies
Orpington Air Conditioning Installers
Orpington grew quickly between the wars, and it shows in the housing. Much of the town is made up of 1930s semis and detached houses, post-war bungalows and chalet bungalows, with newer apartments close to the High Street and the station. Plenty of these homes have since gained a loft room, a rear extension or a conservatory, and those additions are usually where the heat builds up.
Our job is to work out where your home is gaining heat and deal with it at the source. Sometimes that means one unit in a dormer bedroom. Sometimes it means a multi-room system covering the upstairs of a house in Crofton or Goddington. We will tell you honestly which one you need.
Orpington is close to our Dartford base, which keeps survey and installation dates flexible and means help is nearby if you ever need it. We regularly work in Petts Wood, Chelsfield, Green Street Green, Farnborough, Locksbottom and the Crays.
Every installation is carried out by our own F-Gas certified engineers, and the system is commissioned and demonstrated before we consider the job finished.
- Surveys carried out in person across BR5 and BR6, never guessed from photos.
- Heating and cooling from one system for rooms the radiators struggle with.
- Low-level and wall-mounted options for sloping loft ceilings.
- Neat external trunking matched as closely as possible to your brick or render.
- Approved Mitsubishi Electric installer and Panasonic Pro Partner.
- Ongoing servicing from the same local team that fitted your system.
Designed For Local Properties
Housing in Orpington has its own quirks. These are the situations we are asked about most, and how we usually handle them.
Petts Wood garden suburb
The mock-Tudor semis and detached houses of Petts Wood have timbered gables and tile-hung fronts that nobody wants spoiled. We keep outdoor units and pipework to the rear or side, and parts of the area carry extra planning controls that we will flag at the survey.
Chalet bungalows in Chelsfield
Rooms built into the roof have sloping ceilings and very little wall height, and they trap heat. Low-level console units or slim wall units on the gable end give you cooling without losing headroom.
1930s semis in Crofton and Goddington
The classic layout has two good bedrooms and a box room, often now a home office. A multi-room system lets you cool each one independently from a single outdoor unit at the back of the house.
Extensions and conservatories
Kitchen extensions with roof lanterns and bi-fold doors are common in Farnborough and Locksbottom, and they collect a lot of afternoon sun. We size the unit for the glazing rather than just the floor area.
Apartments by the High Street
Flats in the newer blocks around the town centre and station can be very warm at night. We advise on what your lease allows and on suitable positions for an outdoor unit before you commit to anything.
Business units and shops
For offices, shops and trade units along the High Street, Sevenoaks Way and Cray Avenue, see our commercial air conditioning service, which covers installation and planned maintenance.
Top Tier Brands
We install systems from a small number of manufacturers with a strong record for reliability and parts support. As an approved Mitsubishi Electric installer and Panasonic Pro Partner, we can match the right range to an Orpington loft room, extension or shop floor.
Your Project Journey
A simple, well-organised process, so you know what is happening at your Orpington property at each stage.
Visit and Measure
We come to your Orpington home, look at the rooms you want cooled, check the loft, walls and outside space, and talk through how you actually use the house.
Written Proposal
You receive a clear written quote setting out the recommended system, unit positions and pipe routes. There is no pressure and no follow-up hassle.
Fitting
Our engineers install the system, protect floors and furnishings while they work, and test everything before it is switched on. More detail is on our installation page.
Aftercare
We set up your controls and app, register the warranty, and remain your point of contact for questions and annual servicing.
