Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Redruth
In Redruth, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks.
For a kitchen-diner in Redruth, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Redruth is about 8 miles from Truro and falls within our Cornwall coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include TR15.

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
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.

The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote.
