Bedroom and loft air conditioning across Tyne and Wear
For bedrooms in Newcastle upon Tyne, we place the outdoor unit at the back of the house, away from neighbours' windows. Loft conversions and top-floor bedrooms in Newcastle upon Tyne gain heat through the roof all day and give it back at night. North East summers are cooler, so heat pump heating is often the main draw, with cooling for warm spells.

As an example, the Popular option (low-noise unit with Wi-Fi for a loft room or main bedroom) would typically be £1,445–£1,995 here.

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
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
The survey
A survey in Tyne and Wear usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. Surveys in Tyne and Wear cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
