Air conditioning for flats and apartments in Saltash

Balcony-mounted outdoor units are often the neatest solution for flats in Saltash. South West summers are milder on the coast, but sheltered towns and south-facing rooms still overheat, and efficient winter heating matters just as much.

In Saltash apartment blocks, the freeholder's consent is usually the first thing to sort out. Saltash sits around 38 miles from Truro, inside our Cornwall area. Homes in PL12 are all within our coverage.

If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.

Consent and planning for flats

Leaseholders in Saltash usually need the freeholder's consent for anything fixed outside, and blocks of flats often need planning permission for outdoor units. In England, permitted development allows one outdoor unit of up to 0.6 m³ on a block of flats; anything more needs planning permission.

The survey

At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. Surveys in Saltash cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
