Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Prescot
An extension in Prescot with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. 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 Prescot, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Prescot sits around 7 miles from Liverpool, inside our Merseyside area. We cover L34 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
Surveys in Prescot cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare. A survey in Prescot 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.
