Floor console air conditioning in Oadby
The East Midlands gets warm, dry summer spells, and loft conversions and top-floor bedrooms are where the heat builds. Where a room in Oadby has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear.
If your home in Oadby is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit. We cover Oadby as part of Leicestershire, roughly 3 miles from Leicester. Coverage includes LE2.

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
For most houses in Oadby, 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
A survey in Oadby usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. We book surveys in Oadby at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
