Conservatory air conditioning in Huntingdon
If your conservatory in Huntingdon faces south, that is where overheating is worst. Bright summers in the East of England mean solar gain through glass is usually the biggest load to design for.
In Huntingdon, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory. Huntingdon sits around 17 miles from Peterborough, inside our Cambridgeshire area. Postcode districts we cover here include PE26, PE28 and PE29.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Huntingdon, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
A survey in Huntingdon 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. 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.
