Home air conditioning in New Malden
Many London homes are flats or tall terraces, where heat rises to the top floor and the bedrooms bear the brunt of a hot spell. New Malden is about 9 miles from central London and falls within our London coverage. Coverage includes KT3.
Rooms and systems
First-fix pipework in New Malden extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. In New Malden, a flat-fronted unit is a neat way to add cooling to a living room without a bulky white box. For a kitchen-diner in New Malden, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Units over fifteen years old in New Malden homes are worth replacing before they fail completely.
Many homes start with one or two rooms. A system can be designed so that more rooms are added later without replacing the outdoor unit. Existing systems need care too: an annual service, an occasional deep clean and prompt repairs keep them efficient and quiet.
Guide prices in New Malden

Planning and permissions
For most houses in New Malden, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey. Flats need more care: get your freeholder's written consent first, and expect the planning rules for a block of flats in New Malden to be stricter than for a house.
New Malden is in the Boiler Upgrade Scheme area, so eligible homes replacing oil, gas, LPG or electric heating may be able to get £2,500 off an air-to-air heat pump, as long as no fossil-fuel boiler stays in use. An MCS-certified installer must claim it; we confirm eligibility, and which installer applies, before you commit.
