Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Wimborne Minster
Top-floor flats and HMO rooms in Wimborne Minster can get uncomfortably hot in summer, which tenants notice first. Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling.
For Wimborne Minster landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. Wimborne Minster is about 6 miles from Bournemouth and falls within our Dorset coverage. Coverage includes BH21.

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
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. On a survey in Wimborne Minster the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
