Design-led and low-profile air conditioning in Heavitree
In Heavitree, a flat-fronted unit is a neat way to add cooling to a living room without a bulky white box. Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling.
For Heavitree houses with decorated or panelled walls, a slim unit with concealed pipework keeps the room looking finished. Heavitree is about 37 miles from Plymouth and falls within our Devon coverage. Homes in EX2 and EX1 are all within our coverage.

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
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.
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. 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.
