Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Litherland
North West summers are cooler, so many systems here earn their keep as efficient heaters, with cooling for the warmest weeks. For a kitchen-diner in Litherland, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear.
In Litherland, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Litherland lies roughly 4 miles from Liverpool, and we cover it as part of Merseyside. We cover L21 and the streets around them.

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
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
A survey in Litherland usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. On a survey in Litherland 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.
