Air conditioning in Mole Valley

Tempest covers Mole Valley — Dorking and Leatherhead — with F-Gas-registered air conditioning installation, repair and servicing. The district’s Article 4 directions and Surrey Hills setting make careful, consent-led condenser siting essential, which is exactly what we handle.

Planning & permissions in Mole Valley

Mole Valley has around 26 conservation areas, with Article 4 directions in parts of Dorking, Leatherhead and Brockham that remove permitted-development rights for minor external changes — so an outdoor unit on a street-facing elevation in those areas needs express permission. Much of the district is also Surrey Hills National Landscape (AONB), including the Box Hill gateway at Dorking. We design discreet, compliant installs and manage any application.

Commercial air conditioning in Mole Valley

Commercial demand centres on Dorking and Leatherhead’s town-centre retail and offices, plus the business estates around Leatherhead. Period and high-street premises benefit from sympathetic, quiet cooling.

Air conditioning in Mole Valley — FAQs

What is an Article 4 direction and does it affect my Dorking install?

An Article 4 direction removes some permitted-development rights in a defined area, meaning changes that would normally be automatic — like an external condenser on a visible elevation — need planning permission. Parts of Dorking and Leatherhead are affected; we check your address at survey and handle any application.

Can you install air conditioning near Box Hill and the Surrey Hills?

Yes. AONB settings tighten permitted-development rights, so we design low-visibility installations and obtain prior approval where it is needed.
