Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Rugby
For a kitchen-diner in Rugby, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. In the West Midlands, sizing for winter heating first and then checking summer cooling usually gives the best all-year system.
An extension in Rugby with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Rugby is about 13 miles from Nuneaton and falls within our Warwickshire coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include CV21.

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 Rugby, 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
The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote. A survey in Rugby 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.
