Home air conditioning in Hampshire
Summers in the South East are among the warmest in the country, so cooling often comes first, with efficient winter heating as a bonus. The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first.
We service most makes found in Southampton homes, including systems we did not install. Where a house in Southampton has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. Homes near busy roads and kitchens around Southampton tend to need a deep clean more often. Design-led units, slim floor consoles and concealed ducted systems are all options where a standard white wall unit would look out of place. Flats, listed homes and garden rooms each bring their own questions, from freeholder consent to cable routes, and we cover them at survey.

Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
If your home in Hampshire is replacing fossil fuel or electric heating, and no gas, oil or LPG boiler stays in use, an MCS-certified air-to-air heat pump may qualify for the £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, which the MCS-certified installer claims and deducts from the price.
