Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Nelson
An extension in Nelson with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Damp North West weather makes the dehumidifying mode of a modern split system genuinely useful for much of the year.
In Nelson, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Nelson lies roughly 21 miles from Preston, and we cover it as part of Lancashire. Coverage includes BB9.
Prices in Nelson
Our North West England guide price for air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners is £1,395–£4,245 per space, VAT included. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in North West England tend to be. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. As an example, the Large single option (one 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space) would typically be £1,945–£2,695 here.
Single unit
One 3.5–5 kW unit for a medium extension.
Large single
One 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space.
Twin units
Two indoor units on a multi-split for long or L-shaped spaces.
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
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.

We book surveys in Nelson at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. 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.
