Floor console air conditioning in Borehamwood
Where a house in Borehamwood has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. Bright summers in the East of England mean solar gain through glass is usually the biggest load to design for.
Where a room in Borehamwood has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. We cover Borehamwood as part of Hertfordshire, roughly 5 miles from Watford. Homes in WD6 are all within our coverage.

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
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
