Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Chorley
If you let a holiday home or annexe near Chorley, one system can warm it before guests arrive and cool it in summer. North West summers are cooler, so many systems here earn their keep as efficient heaters, with cooling for the warmest weeks.
For Chorley landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. Chorley lies roughly 9 miles from Preston, and we cover it as part of Lancashire. Homes in PR7 are all within our coverage.

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
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
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. The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote.
