Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Chippenham
For a kitchen-diner in Chippenham, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. In the South West, a system that heats well through damp winters is often as valuable as summer cooling.
In Chippenham, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Chippenham sits around 16 miles from Swindon, inside our Wiltshire area. That includes the SN15 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
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.
