Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in St Neots
Long sunny spells in the East of England put conservatories and top-floor rooms under real pressure. In St Neots, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
An extension in St Neots with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. St Neots lies roughly 25 miles from Peterborough, and we cover it as part of Cambridgeshire. Postcode districts we cover here include PE19.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in St Neots, 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
On a survey in St Neots the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows. We book surveys in St Neots at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
