What they do

CDS Electrical is the trading name of Corin Dudley Electrical Services Limited, based at Chaucer Business Park in Polegate, just outside Eastbourne. The site says it has served Sussex as electricians since 1996, and the company was incorporated on 26 September 2002, which gives 24 years on Companies House. Air conditioning is one of many services.

The air con page lists single-room and multi-room setups, wall-mounted units, ceiling cassettes and ducted systems, for residential and commercial properties. It says its units act as energy-saving heat pumps, and separately that it installs air source heat pumps across East and West Sussex. Servicing is offered for domestic and commercial systems. Free consultations are offered. Coverage is East and West Sussex, including Eastbourne, Brighton, Worthing, Crawley, Hastings and Uckfield. No brands are named.

Credentials

F-gas: verified on the REFCOM register, certificate REF1012637, listed under the legal name Corin Dudley Electrical Services Ltd and not "CDS Electrical". The site says it is FGAS-certified and that its installers are fully qualified.

Company status: active at Companies House (number 04545594). An MCS badge appears on the site as an image, but we did not check it on the MCS register. No manufacturer approvals are claimed.

Prices and warranty

No prices or warranty terms are published. Ask for a written quote naming the units, pipework, electrical work, commissioning and VAT.

Good to know

Maybe not if

Published prices

CDS Electrical does not publish prices that we could find, so we show none. See typical costs → Installed prices depend on a survey (it says the design survey is free). Is this your business? Tell us your prices.

What to ask for in the written quote

  • The make, model and kW rating of each unit. Check the size against our size calculator.
  • What the price includes: pipework, electrics, condensate drain, making good and commissioning.
  • A copy of the company F-gas certificate, and the engineer's certificate number.
  • Warranty on parts and labour, and whether it depends on an approved installer.
  • The survey fee, the start date and how many days the job takes.

For a sense of the range, read the air conditioning cost guide.
