Floor console air conditioning in Hatfield
Where a room in Hatfield has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Low rainfall and long summer days in the East of England make south-facing rooms the first to overheat.
Where a house in Hatfield has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. Hatfield is about 11 miles from Watford and falls within our Hertfordshire coverage. Coverage includes AL10.

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.

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. We book surveys in Hatfield at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
