Conservatory air conditioning in Barnstaple
South West summers are milder on the coast, but sheltered towns and south-facing rooms still overheat, and efficient winter heating matters just as much. In Barnstaple, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory.
If your conservatory in Barnstaple faces south, that is where overheating is worst. Barnstaple is about 49 miles from Plymouth and falls within our Devon coverage. Homes in EX31 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
