Conservatory air conditioning in Wells
Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling. If your conservatory in Wells faces south, that is where overheating is worst.
Conservatories and orangeries in Wells can swing from too hot in July to too cold in January. Wells lies roughly 24 miles from Taunton, and we cover it as part of Somerset. Homes in BA5 are all within our coverage.

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
For most houses in Wells, 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
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. We book surveys in Wells at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
