Floor console air conditioning in Kilburn

Where a house in Kilburn has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. In London, heat soaks into brick and concrete during the day and comes back out at night, which is when it is hardest to sleep.

Where a room in Kilburn has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. We cover Kilburn as part of London, roughly 5 miles from central London. Homes in NW6 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions

In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
