Floor console air conditioning in Aldridge
Away from the coast, West Midlands summers can turn hot quickly, and bedrooms under the roof are the first to suffer. Where a house in Aldridge has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was.
If your home in Aldridge is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit. Aldridge lies roughly 9 miles from Birmingham, and we cover it as part of the West Midlands. Homes in WS9 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
A survey in Aldridge usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
