Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Keswick
North West summers are cooler, so many systems here earn their keep as efficient heaters, with cooling for the warmest weeks. In Keswick, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
An extension in Keswick with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Our Cumbria coverage takes in Keswick, about 22 miles from Carlisle. We cover CA12 and the streets around them.

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.
