Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Towcester
In Towcester, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Summer peaks in the East Midlands make bedrooms under the roof the hardest rooms to keep comfortable.
For a kitchen-diner in Towcester, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Our Northamptonshire coverage takes in Towcester, about 9 miles from Northampton. Postcode districts we cover here include NN12.

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.

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.
