Design-led and low-profile air conditioning in Fareham
Design-led units suit Fareham homes with feature walls or open-plan rooms where the unit is always in view. Hot spells reach the South East early, which makes spring the easiest time to arrange an installation.
For Fareham houses with decorated or panelled walls, a slim unit with concealed pipework keeps the room looking finished. Fareham lies roughly 10 miles from Southampton, and we cover it as part of Hampshire. Coverage includes PO16.

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.
