Garden room and home office air conditioning in Bideford

Garden offices used every day in Bideford need cooling in summer and efficient heat in winter. South West summers are milder on the coast, but sheltered towns and south-facing rooms still overheat, and efficient winter heating matters just as much.

We check the armoured supply cable on every Bideford garden room before quoting. Our Devon coverage takes in Bideford, about 45 miles from Plymouth. That includes the EX39 postcode district.

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.
