Floor console air conditioning in Sittingbourne

Hot spells reach the South East early, which makes spring the easiest time to arrange an installation. If your home in Sittingbourne is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit.

Where a house in Sittingbourne has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. We cover Sittingbourne as part of Kent, roughly 11 miles from Maidstone. Homes in ME10 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions

For most houses in Sittingbourne, 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

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 Sittingbourne at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
