Degrees Of Comfort - Buckinghamshire

Graeme F.

I have a large sectional-concrete constructed 'shed' in the garden which serves as an office space when working from home, a workshop for woodworking/metalworking projects and a 'man-cave' when I want some 'me' time. Despite my best efforts to insulate it from heat and cold, it still gets a little toasty in the summer and somewhat chilly in the winter. Also, in spite being in a 'key-work' role, I spend at least a day a week working from home and wasn't looking forward to the warmer summer weather. I wanted to install a proper air-conditioning system to keep my working space comfortable during the summer and winter and came across Degrees of Comfort when I searched for a local air-conditioning installer. Kevin called me within a couple of hours of submitting an enquiry via the website and we arranged a survey appointment within the week. He was friendly, courteous and helpful and made a recommendation on a suitable system, advised on required services and provided a quote within hours.

The installation took place within 3 weeks of quotation and the install team were friendly, helpful and professional. The job was completed to an exemplary standard of workmanship, not a shred of dust was left behind and the team took away every item of packaging.

After a brief run-through of the system's functions, including the web App (you can control your air-con from your phone - who knew?), the guys left me to enjoy my newly comfortable, climate-controlled surroundings.

A few days in, I'm amazed at how much the system isn't costing me to run and we're already contemplating an additional system for the bedrooms in the house.

I can't recommend Degrees of Comfort highly enough!

EDIT: It seems I can't add a second review, so I'll just have to append this one.

The first unit is performing perfectly and still costing next to nothing to run.

SWMBO didn't take much persuading to take the plunge on the additional rooms after spending half a day working in my office, so I arranged another survey visit with Kevin for the three 'bedrooms' - Our main bedroom, my good lady's office and our spare (now converted to a gym) room.

We've been running a portable Aircon unit as required in the main bedroom since last year. It's brutally noisy, even on low fan speed, and despite being properly vented through the wall, it still costs a small fortune to run. By contrast split systems are unobtrusive, whisper quiet and extremely efficient with very low running costs.

Kevin proposed a Mitsubishi Electric multi-split system (3 indoor units with one outside unit) with all of the services run in the loft space (gulp, urgent loft sort-out needed!😬)

On install day, the guys turned up at 8am sharp and got straight to work. Friendly, courteous, helpful and also happy to make friends with our extremely sociable Border Collie, Stan.

The work took almost 2 full days - there's a lot more involved in installing a 3-way multi-split system than I had initially appreciated.

Installation quality is exemplary. Everything is neat, tidy and unobtrusive and not a speck of dust was left behind.

The system works phenomenally well - within a short space of time, the rooms had cooled to a very comfortable 19°C on a warm, sticky day and it's almost totally silent in operation.

Again, wi-fi setup with the MELCloud App was a cinch. We can now control all 4 units from a smart phone/tablet.

Great quality equipment, professionally installed to an exceptionally high standard. If you're looking for air-conditioning, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better service provider than Degrees of Comfort!

I selected Degrees of Comfort after both a recommendation from a neighbour who had air conditioning installed and after getting multiple like for like quotes. The install was for a full house air to air heat pump solution.

A big install like this can feel really intrusive but everything about the install went well. The installation team were highly professional. The install looks great and as they went from room to room installing the indoor parts of the splits they may have actually left the rooms in a slightly cleaner state than they started in.

The thing that stands out for me however is the after install service. I had a couple of small changes / modifications that I wanted to make and the team have been really responsive and happy to support.

Degrees of Comfort have made the process of getting the heat pump install an absolute pleasure.

The level of service from start to finish was superb. Kevin was both friendly and knowledgable and made great suggestions for the installation into my house. The installation teams were both friendly, tidy, clean and highly experienced. You really get the feeling that degree of comfort are experts in their field.
