Floor console air conditioning in Shanklin
In the South East, loft rooms and glazed extensions can climb well above the outside temperature on a sunny afternoon. Where a room in Shanklin has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear.
If your home in Shanklin is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit. Our Isle of Wight coverage takes in Shanklin, about 7 miles from Newport, Isle of Wight. Homes in PO37 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Shanklin, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
Where travel is involved, we agree the survey arrangements and any travel cost up front. On the day, the engineer measures the rooms, checks the electrics and agrees the outdoor unit position with you. Surveys in Shanklin are arranged around travel. We confirm the date and any travel, ferry or accommodation cost in writing before you commit, then the survey covers rooms, pipe routes, electrics and noise as normal.
