Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Shrewsbury
In the West Midlands, sizing for winter heating first and then checking summer cooling usually gives the best all-year system. In Shrewsbury, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
For a kitchen-diner in Shrewsbury, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Our Shropshire coverage takes in Shrewsbury, about 13 miles from Telford. Homes in SY1 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 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
We book surveys in Shrewsbury at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. On a survey in Shrewsbury 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.
