Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Morecambe
Damp North West weather makes the dehumidifying mode of a modern split system genuinely useful for much of the year. In Morecambe, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
An extension in Morecambe with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Morecambe lies roughly 22 miles from Preston, and we cover it as part of Lancashire. Postcode districts we cover here include LA4.

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
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
