Multi-split air conditioning in Folkestone
The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first. In a house in Folkestone with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear.
Twin and triple systems suit Folkestone homes where bedrooms sit above the kitchen and one rear wall can take the outdoor unit. Our Kent coverage takes in Folkestone, about 31 miles from Maidstone. That includes the CT19 postcode district.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Folkestone, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
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. Surveys in Folkestone cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
