Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Wokingham
Summers in the South East are among the warmest in the country, so cooling often comes first, with efficient winter heating as a bonus. For a kitchen-diner in Wokingham, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear.
An extension in Wokingham with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Wokingham is about 7 miles from Reading and falls within our Berkshire coverage. Coverage includes RG40.

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
For most houses in Wokingham, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. We book surveys in Wokingham at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
