Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Muswell Hill
In London, heat soaks into brick and concrete during the day and comes back out at night, which is when it is hardest to sleep. An extension in Muswell Hill with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon.
In Muswell Hill, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. We cover Muswell Hill as part of London, roughly 6 miles from central London. Coverage includes N2 and N10.

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
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
