Floor console air conditioning in Dagenham

If your home in Dagenham is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit. The urban heat island effect means London bedrooms can stay uncomfortably warm on summer nights.

Where a room in Dagenham has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Our London coverage takes in Dagenham, about 13 miles from central London. Homes in RM10 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions

England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.

FAQ

Common questions in Dagenham

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Dagenham?

Most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions. Flats and listed buildings usually need permission or consent. We check on survey.

How soon can you survey in Dagenham?

We offer survey dates when you enquire. Early summer is the busiest time, so spring and autumn are the easiest times to book.

How long does the installation take in Dagenham?

Usually one day. We confirm the timing, and any days with no cooling or heating, in your written quote.

Can I get a price for Dagenham without a visit?

Yes, our online guide price tool gives a range in about a minute. A fixed price needs a survey, which is free for new installations.

Do you cover all of Dagenham?

Yes, including RM10. We also cover nearby Becontree and Romford.

Are floor consoles quieter than wall units?

They are similar. Because they sit lower in the room you may notice the fan a little more at high speed, so we size them so they normally run on a low setting.
