Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in St Neots
Bright summers in the East of England mean solar gain through glass is usually the biggest load to design for. If you let a holiday home or annexe near St Neots, one system can warm it before guests arrive and cool it in summer.
For St Neots landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. St Neots lies roughly 25 miles from Peterborough, and we cover it as part of Cambridgeshire. We cover PE19 and the streets around them.

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.
The survey
A survey in St Neots 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.
