Bedroom and loft air conditioning across North Yorkshire
Top-floor flats in York feel the heat most, because the roof sits right above the bedroom. Loft conversions and top-floor bedrooms in York gain heat through the roof all day and give it back at night. Across Yorkshire, an air-to-air system is a practical way to replace old electric heaters, with cooling for the hottest spells.

Planning and permissions
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.

On a survey in North Yorkshire the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
