Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Bridgwater
An extension in Bridgwater with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. In the South West, a system that heats well through damp winters is often as valuable as summer cooling.
For a kitchen-diner in Bridgwater, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Our Somerset coverage takes in Bridgwater, about 9 miles from Taunton. Coverage includes TA6.
Prices in Bridgwater
Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Bridgwater typically comes in at £1,450–£4,450 per space including VAT, based on South West England rates.

On our South West England figures, the Large single option (one 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space) is about £2,050–£2,850.
Single unit
One 3.5–5 kW unit for a medium extension.
Large single
One 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space.
Twin units
Two indoor units on a multi-split for long or L-shaped spaces.
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
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
On a survey in Bridgwater 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. A survey in Bridgwater 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.
