FAQs
Which areas of Bristol do you cover for climate-control heating and air-conditioning services?
We serve the entire Bristol region, including the city centre, Clifton, Redland, Cotham, Bedminster, Bishopston, Horfield, Stoke Gifford, Filton, Bradley Stoke, Long Ashton and surrounding BS-postcode villages. If you are slightly outside these areas, give us a call—our mobile engineers regularly travel throughout South Gloucestershire and North Somerset when schedules allow.
What types of systems can you supply and install?
Our F-Gas–certified team installs, replaces and upgrades a full range of HVAC solutions: high-efficiency air-source heat pumps, gas condensing boilers, split and multi-split air-conditioning units, VRF/VRV systems for larger commercial premises, ducted air handlers, dehumidifiers and smart zoning controls. We are approved installers for leading manufacturers such as Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Panasonic and Worcester Bosch, so we can recommend the best setup for your property size, insulation level and budget.
Are the systems you offer energy-efficient and do they qualify for grants or incentives?
Yes. Most of our heat pumps and inverter-driven AC units achieve seasonal coefficient of performance (SCOP) ratings of 4.0 or higher, meaning they produce at least four units of heating or cooling for every unit of electricity consumed. Many models meet the criteria for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (BUS) in England, which currently provides grants of up to £7,500 toward heat-pump installation. We will guide you through eligibility checks, paperwork and MCS certification so you can claim any available funding and reduce long-term running costs.
How often should I have my heating or air-conditioning system serviced?
For domestic properties we recommend a full preventive maintenance visit once a year—ideally in early spring for heat pumps/AC and late summer for boilers—so you enter the peak heating or cooling season with maximum efficiency and reliability. Commercial sites with higher usage or critical temperature control (e.g., server rooms, food prep areas) should schedule servicing every six months. Our service includes refrigerant leak checks, filter cleaning or replacement, coil sanitisation, safety inspections and performance optimisation.
Do you provide emergency breakdown support and how quickly can you attend?
Yes. We operate a dedicated 24/7 emergency call-out line for customers in Bristol and the surrounding area. For no-heat or no-cool situations we aim to have an engineer on site within 2–4 hours, even on weekends and bank holidays. Our vans carry common spare parts and refrigerants, enabling us to resolve around 85 % of breakdowns on the first visit. Planned maintenance customers receive priority attendance and discounted call-out rates.
How much does a new climate-control system cost and what is your quoting process?
Prices vary according to property size, system type and any electrical or plumbing upgrades required. As a guideline, a single-room wall-mounted split AC unit starts around £1,400 fully installed, while a whole-home air-source heat-pump retrofit typically ranges from £6,500 to £12,000 before grants. We provide free, no-obligation surveys in which a qualified engineer assesses heat-loss, ducting options and control preferences. You will receive a detailed written quotation within 48 hours, itemising equipment, labour, warranty details and any optional extras so you can make an informed decision.
