Bedroom and loft air conditioning in Wantage
For bedrooms in Wantage, we place the outdoor unit at the back of the house, away from neighbours' windows. Hot spells reach the South East early, which makes spring the easiest time to arrange an installation.
Loft conversions and top-floor bedrooms in Wantage gain heat through the roof all day and give it back at night. Wantage lies roughly 13 miles from Oxford, and we cover it as part of Oxfordshire. Homes in OX12 are all within our coverage.

Guide prices show VAT at 20%. HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them. If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
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.
The survey
The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
