Floor console air conditioning in Waltham Abbey
The East of England is one of the sunniest and driest parts of the UK, which makes glazed rooms and lofts hard to keep cool. If your home in Waltham Abbey is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit.
Where a house in Waltham Abbey has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. Waltham Abbey sits around 32 miles from Southend-on-Sea, inside our Essex area. That includes the EN9 postcode district.

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.
