New build and renovation air conditioning in Redruth
For new Redruth extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. South West summers are milder on the coast, but sheltered towns and south-facing rooms still overheat, and efficient winter heating matters just as much.
First-fix pipework in Redruth extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Our Cornwall coverage takes in Redruth, about 8 miles from Truro. Homes in TR15 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%.
Working with your builder
Because the pipework is built into the structure, coordination with your builder matters more than planning here; the outdoor unit follows the same rules as any other installation.
