Conservatory air conditioning across County Antrim
Conservatories and orangeries in Belfast can swing from too hot in July to too cold in January. In Belfast, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory. Damp Northern Ireland winters make a heat pump's dehumidifying mode useful well beyond the summer.

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.

Planning and permissions
In Northern Ireland we confirm planning requirements for the outdoor unit on survey, especially for listed buildings and conservation areas.
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.
