Air conditioning replacement is removing an old system — often one using R22 or R410A refrigerant — and installing new, more efficient equipment, re-using pipework where it is safe and compatible.

Install and commission
New units are fitted, tested and commissioned with fresh records.
What to think about in Mitcham
R22
Since 1 January 2015, R22 systems cannot be maintained using virgin or recycled R22. If one leaks, the practical fix is usually replacement.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Disposal
Old refrigerant must be recovered by certified engineers and the units disposed of as waste electrical equipment.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Mitcham often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.

Do you also cover Morden, Wimbledon and Streatham?
Yes. Alongside Mitcham, we also cover Morden, Wimbledon and Streatham. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Mitcham?
All of them, including CR4. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Is it illegal to use R22 air conditioning?
No — you can keep running an R22 system, but it cannot be maintained with virgin or recycled R22, so most repairs involving the refrigerant circuit are no longer possible.
Should we replace R410A systems now?
Not necessarily. If an R410A system is working well and maintained, keep it. Plan replacement when it becomes unreliable or expensive to run.
