Floor console air conditioning in Bexley
If your home in Bexley is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit. London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset.
Where a room in Bexley has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Our London coverage takes in Bexley, about 12 miles from central London. Homes in DA15 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
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
The survey
On a survey in Bexley the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows. Surveys in Bexley cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
