Design-led and low-profile air conditioning in Canary Wharf
In Canary Wharf, a flat-fronted unit is a neat way to add cooling to a living room without a bulky white box. London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset.
For Canary Wharf houses with decorated or panelled walls, a slim unit with concealed pipework keeps the room looking finished. Our London coverage takes in Canary Wharf, about 4 miles from central London. We cover E14 and SE16 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
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
Surveys in Canary Wharf cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare. A survey in Canary Wharf 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.
