Conservatory air conditioning in Littlehampton
Conservatories and orangeries in Littlehampton can swing from too hot in July to too cold in January. In the South East, loft rooms and glazed extensions can climb well above the outside temperature on a sunny afternoon.
In Littlehampton, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory. We cover Littlehampton as part of West Sussex, roughly 26 miles from Crawley. We cover BN17 and the streets around them.

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.
