Floor console air conditioning in Thame

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

Where a room in Thame has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Thame is about 12 miles from Oxford and falls within our Oxfordshire coverage. We cover OX9 and the streets around them.

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.

FAQ

Common questions in Thame

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Thame?

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 much does floor console air conditioning cost in Thame?

Our guide range in South East England is £1,645–£3,595 per room, including VAT. The exact price depends on the rooms, the pipe route and access, and we confirm it in writing after a free survey.

How soon can you survey in Thame?

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

Is the survey in Thame really free?

Yes, for new installations. The survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover all of Thame?

Yes, including OX9. We also cover nearby Aylesbury and Oxford.

Do consoles cool as well as wall units?

They cool well, but cold air sinks, so a high wall unit spreads cooling further across a large room. In most living rooms a console is perfectly comfortable.
