Ducted air conditioning in Uxbridge
Ducted systems suit Uxbridge loft conversions and new extensions where ceilings are being boarded anyway. London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset.
For a renovation in Uxbridge, the best time to plan ducted cooling is before the plasterers arrive. Uxbridge lies roughly 16 miles from central London, and we cover it as part of London. Postcode districts we cover here include UB8.

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.
