Garden offices used every day in Chingford need cooling in summer and efficient heat in winter. Chingford sits around 11 miles from central London, inside our London area. Homes in E4 are all within our coverage.

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.
