Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Maesteg
Wet South Wales winters make a heat pump's quiet, even heating and dehumidifying mode useful well beyond summer. For a kitchen-diner in Maesteg, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear.
In Maesteg, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Maesteg sits around 8 miles from Bridgend, inside our Mid Glamorgan area. Homes in CF34 are all within our coverage.

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 1 June 2026, Welsh permitted development rules for outdoor units closely match England's: up to 1.5 m³, two units on a detached home, one on other homes, and MCS 020a noise compliance. Listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions on units facing a road.
