Conservatory air conditioning in Slough
In Slough, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory. In the South East, loft rooms and glazed extensions can climb well above the outside temperature on a sunny afternoon.
Conservatories and orangeries in Slough can swing from too hot in July to too cold in January. Slough lies roughly 17 miles from Reading, and we cover it as part of Berkshire. Homes in SL1 are all within our coverage.

That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in South East England. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles.

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.
