Questions & answers

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

No sales spin. Just honest information to help you decide.

About installation
Most apartments are done in a single day. Multi-room installs or complex pipework routing may run into a second day — but we'll always tell you this after the survey, never on the day itself. No surprises.
No. We use floor protection and dust sheets throughout, and pipework is concealed and made good — plastered in as part of the wall rather than boxed in plastic trunking. The whole job is turnkey: making good, redecoration of affected areas and the electrical connection are all handled by us, and we vacuum before we leave. Your flat should look exactly as it did. Just with a unit on the wall.
Yes — or a trusted person on your behalf. We're working inside your home and want you comfortable with every step as it happens.
Survey visits are usually available within a week. Once you've approved the quote and any building permissions are confirmed, we typically book installations within 2–3 weeks. Call us and we'll give you a realistic timeline for your specific situation.
Yes — and we do it all the time. Bedrooms, living rooms, home offices, and lofts can all be connected to a single outdoor unit via a multi-split system. In many cases, a two or three-room install is still completed within a single day.
We assess each property and find the most discreet position available. There are often options homeowners don't realise are possible — including partial or full concealment. A multi-split setup means multiple indoor units share one outdoor unit, reducing exterior clutter significantly.
With our solutions, this rarely even comes up — that's the point of them. HomeKube™ needs no outdoor unit at all, and our concealed options keep everything hidden from sight, so there's usually nothing for a management company to object to. Where consent is still required, we prepare the full application pack for you and handle the process from start to finish.
About the system
Modern split systems are extremely quiet — typically 19–26dB on low fan, which is below the level of a whispered conversation. Outdoor units are also designed to operate discreetly. They're nothing like the window boxes of the past.
Completely. When installed and set up correctly, it's safe for all occupants. It also filters airborne particles and dust, which actually improves indoor air quality — something particularly valuable in city apartments.
Yes. Every system we install is an air-to-air heat pump — it heats as well as cools. It's typically three to four times more efficient than a standard electric heater, so many of our customers find it becomes their preferred heating method in winter too.
Most modern units support app control — adjust the temperature, set schedules, and monitor your system from your phone before you even get home. A wall-mounted remote is included as standard.
Less than most people expect. Modern inverter-driven systems are highly efficient — running costs are significantly lower than portable units or electric heaters, especially when the system is properly sized for your space. That's something we always get right.
About your decision
UK summers are getting warmer every year. But the bigger issue for apartments is that modern insulation — designed to keep heat in — means flats trap heat far more effectively than older houses. Once the walls absorb heat during the day, it radiates back at night. Air conditioning is the only solution that actively extracts that heat and expels it outside.
In the vast majority of residential cases, no. There are exceptions — listed buildings, certain conservation areas — and we'll flag any issues before you commit. Call us if you're unsure and we'll give you a straight answer.
Costs vary depending on the number of rooms, system type, and the complexity of your flat's layout. We provide clear, itemised quotes with no hidden extras — and we offer 0% finance if you'd prefer to spread the cost. We'll give you an accurate figure after seeing your property.
Probably not — and we'd rather be honest about that. We don't cut corners on materials, labour, or finish. If you want a portable unit or the absolute lowest price, we're not the right fit. But if you want it done properly, to last, without needing us back — that's what we do.
Concealment & finish
Yes — that's our InvisiGrille™ solution. The indoor unit is concealed out of sight in a void, wardrobe or above cabinetry, with only a slim bespoke flush grille visible. Guests won't know it's there. See Concealed Solutions.
Yes. We design bespoke concealment around your building — timber-louvre enclosures, integrated screens, discreet roof and balcony positions — engineered for full airflow so no performance is lost. And if no outdoor unit is possible at all, our HomeKube™ systems don't need one.
Yes — we pioneered colour-matched units. Choose from 250+ finishes (Farrow & Ball, Dulux, Little Greene and more) and the unit blends into the wall instead of dominating it. See Colour-Matched Units.
No. Every installation is completely turnkey: the electrical connection, making good and redecoration of affected areas are all done by us. Pipework is concealed and plastered in — never boxed in plastic trunking. One team, one job, a finished apartment.
Very few. This is exactly why we exist: where a normal installer walks away, we have multiple solutions — HomeKube™ needs no outdoor unit at all, HomeKube™ AIR hides the condenser in a loft or void, InvisiGrille™ conceals everything indoors, and our bespoke enclosures hide outdoor units where they are allowed. If an apartment genuinely can't be done, we'll tell you straight — but it's rare.
Yes — 0% payment options are available on qualifying installations, and we're expanding our payment plans. Ask during your free survey and we'll set out exactly what's available for your project.
