Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Pontefract
In Yorkshire, south-facing lofts and glazed extensions are where summer cooling makes the biggest difference. In Pontefract, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
An extension in Pontefract with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. We cover Pontefract as part of West Yorkshire, roughly 12 miles from Leeds. Postcode districts we cover here include WF8.

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
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
