Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Stalybridge
Milder summers in the North West mean designing for winter comfort as much as for a heatwave. For a kitchen-diner in Stalybridge, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear.
In Stalybridge, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Our Greater Manchester coverage takes in Stalybridge, about 7 miles from Manchester. Coverage includes SK15.

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 Stalybridge, 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 Stalybridge 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. 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.
