Ducted air conditioning in Cwmbran
South Wales summers can be warm and humid, and winters damp, so a reversible system earns its keep all year. Ducted systems suit Cwmbran loft conversions and new extensions where ceilings are being boarded anyway.
In an older house in Cwmbran, the loft and any existing bulkheads decide whether a ducted layout will work. Our Gwent coverage takes in Cwmbran, about 5 miles from Newport, Gwent. Coverage includes NP44.
