Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Ponteland
Cold, windy North East winters favour a well-sized heat pump with an outdoor unit sheltered from the prevailing wind. For a kitchen-diner in Ponteland, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear.
In Ponteland, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. We cover Ponteland as part of Northumberland, roughly 11 miles from Blyth. We cover NE20 and the streets around them.
Prices in Ponteland

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
For most houses in Ponteland, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
A survey in Ponteland 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. Surveys in Ponteland cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
