BackThe "South East Premium": Solved.
Homeowners in the South East pay the highest labour rates in the UK outside London. We reject that.
Rhys Powell
Operations Director"The South East has some of the highest 'call-out' fees in the country. Many companies charge £100+ just to walk through your door in Surrey or Kent. I built WarmZilla to end this nonsense. We offer fixed national pricing. Whether you're in Brighton, Guildford, or Southampton, you pay the same fair price as the rest of the UK."

"I had a great experience with warmzilla the staff are experience and very efficient the engineer who did the job was great. I think my overall experience was great and we’ll introduce them to anybody to use them."
Abayomi (Kent)"Living near the Gatwick flight path in Crawley, we couldn't open windows in summer due to jet noise. The AC WarmZilla installed is silent and cool. Great service."
"From enquiry and conversations with the team, whole process progressed in a straightforward stress free way. Day of fitting, my engineer Jay did a great job and dealt with unexpected issues without any fuss."
Dee (Guildford)South East Challenges: Solved
Flight Path Noise
The Problem: Living near flight corridors in Surrey, Kent, or Sussex (e.g. Crawley, Horley, Redhill), opening windows in summer is impossible due to noise pollution.
The Solution: Our AC systems filter and cool the air silently. You can keep your windows triple-glazed shut, blocking out the jets while you sleep in a cool 19°C room.
Commuter Greenhouses
The Issue: New-build homes in the commuter belt are incredibly well insulated. While good for winter, they become "hot boxes" in summer that hold heat for days.
The Fix: Passive ventilation isn't enough. Active cooling (AC) is the only way to remove that trapped heat and make modern bedrooms sleepable.

FAQ's
For most detached and semi-detached homes, AC is Permitted Development. However, in strict conservation areas (common in historic towns like Guildford or Canterbury), you may need advice on placement. Our engineers can suggest discreet locations (e.g. low-level rear walls) to help with compliance.
No. Unlike boilers, Air Conditioning units (Air-to-Air Heat Pumps) do not use water to transfer heat. They use refrigerant. This means they are completely immune to the limescale damage that plagues heating systems in the South East.
No. Many South East traders add "travel time" or parking surcharges to your bill. We don't. The fixed price you see on your quote is the price you pay, whether you live in Portsmouth or Dover.
We can often have a standard single AC unit installed and making you comfortable within 48 hours of your order. The actual fitting in your home is usually completed in a single day.
F-Gas certification is a legal requirement in the UK. Using an uncertified 'handyman' is illegal and will void your manufacturer warranty immediately. All WarmZilla engineers are fully certified pros.
Yes! Our systems are 'Air-to-Air Heat Pumps'. They are super efficient (300-400%) heaters, meaning they are often cheaper to run than gas central heating for a single room.
