Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Saltash
Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks. In Saltash, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
For a kitchen-diner in Saltash, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Our Cornwall coverage takes in Saltash, about 38 miles from Truro. Postcode districts we cover here include PL12.

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 Saltash, 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
