How does air conditioning work?
Air conditioning units can provide both cooling and heating for homes.
- Evaporation: Warm air is drawn in – either from inside (cooling mode) or outside (heating mode) – and passed over the evaporator coil. A low-pressure refrigerant absorbs or removes heat from the air, turning into a gas.
- Compression: The warm refrigerant goes to the compressor, where it’s squashed into a supercharged state, making it hot and ready to release energy.
- Condenser: The cooling setting sends the hot gas to the outdoor condenser coil. Here, a fan blows air across it and the refrigerant releases its heat into the outdoor air. For heating, the condenser is inside your home and the heated air is released into your building.
Types of AC units
H2ecO install a range of air conditioning units in Dorset. These include a ‘standard’ single room, wall-mounted air conditioning system, as well as commercial systems spanning several floors and multiple workspaces.
- Central (Ducted) Units: The most common AC unit uses central units and duct networks to distribute cooled air throughout your property. They can be hidden in the ceiling, so you don’t have big units hanging from your ceilings or windows.
- Split Units: Common in homes and offices, wall-mounted split units are best for single-room regulation or upto 4 rooms.
Key benefits of air conditioning
✅Enhanced air regulation: Air conditioning can keep your home, office, or workplace’s temperatures regulated on a year-round basis. Most units also incorporate efficient air filtration for both particulates and chemicals.
✅Cost effective: Air conditioning units are surprisingly energy efficient, producing more heating or cooling for the energy used than traditional systems. This can cut your energy bills with 3-5 units of heat produced for every 1 unit of energy consumed.
✅Quick savings: For heating purposes, these units remove the need for a mains gas connection allowing you to save up to £100 a year on standing charges.

How much does AC installation cost?
The air conditioning installation process varies, depending on the type of AC unit you need, the size of the unit, and labour costs.
- Type of air conditioning unit: This is the main influence on installation costs. A ducted ceiling-mounted air conditioning unit is more expensive than a portable unit, for example, and has a more complex installation process.
- Size of regulation space: The size of the overall system is defined by the total property demand and each room will have an airconditioning unit specified to match its needs.
- Labour costs: Expect to pay roughly £500-720 per day for labour. Most simple air conditioning units can be installed in one or 2 days.
