Conservatory air conditioning in Canvey Island
In Canvey Island, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory. The East of England is one of the sunniest and driest parts of the UK, which makes glazed rooms and lofts hard to keep cool.
If your conservatory in Canvey Island faces south, that is where overheating is worst. Canvey Island is about 6 miles from Southend-on-Sea and falls within our Essex coverage. Coverage includes SS8.

The survey
A survey in Canvey Island 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.
