Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling. Basement and garage rooms in Brislington usually need a quick check of the supply and the drainage route before quoting.
For a home cinema in Brislington, we place the indoor unit so airflow stays away from the screen and seating. Brislington is part of our Bristol coverage. We cover BS4 and the streets around them.

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

We book surveys in Brislington at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
