Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Arnold
For a kitchen-diner in Arnold, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. In the East Midlands, one system that cools in summer and heats efficiently in winter makes good use of the investment.
An extension in Arnold with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Arnold sits around 3 miles from Nottingham, inside our Nottinghamshire area. That includes the NG5 postcode district.

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 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
The survey
A survey in Arnold 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. We book surveys in Arnold at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
