Floor console air conditioning in Aston
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 Aston has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was.
Where a room in Aston has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Aston sits around 1 mile from Birmingham, inside our West Midlands area. Coverage includes B6.

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
For most houses in Aston, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
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. A survey in Aston 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.
