Floor console air conditioning in Wallsend
Where a house in Wallsend has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. Cold, windy North East winters favour a well-sized heat pump with an outdoor unit sheltered from the prevailing wind.
Where a room in Wallsend has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Wallsend is about 3 miles from Newcastle upon Tyne and falls within our Tyne and Wear coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include NE28.

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
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.
