Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Rothwell
The East Midlands gets warm, dry summer spells, and loft conversions and top-floor bedrooms are where the heat builds. For a kitchen-diner in Rothwell, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear.
An extension in Rothwell with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Rothwell is about 12 miles from Northampton and falls within our Northamptonshire coverage. Homes in NN14 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
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.
The survey
At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. On a survey in Rothwell 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.
