Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Wigan
In Wigan, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. In the North West, heating efficiency is often the main benefit, with summer cooling a welcome bonus.
For a kitchen-diner in Wigan, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Wigan is about 17 miles from Manchester and falls within our Greater Manchester coverage. That includes the WN1 postcode district.

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.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Wigan, 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

Surveys in Wigan cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
