Multi-split air conditioning in Shepton Mallet
Twin and triple systems suit Shepton Mallet homes where bedrooms sit above the kitchen and one rear wall can take the outdoor unit. Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling.
In a house in Shepton Mallet with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear. We cover Shepton Mallet as part of Somerset, roughly 27 miles from Taunton. Homes in BA4 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
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 Shepton Mallet 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.
