Ducted air conditioning in Tynemouth
Cooler North East summers mean cooling is mostly needed in lofts, conservatories and rooms with large windows. Ducted systems suit Tynemouth loft conversions and new extensions where ceilings are being boarded anyway.
For a renovation in Tynemouth, the best time to plan ducted cooling is before the plasterers arrive. Our Tyne and Wear coverage takes in Tynemouth, about 8 miles from Newcastle upon Tyne. Coverage includes NE30.

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.
