New build and renovation air conditioning in Swinton
Milder summers in the North West mean designing for winter comfort as much as for a heatwave. First-fix pipework in Swinton extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open.
For new Swinton extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Swinton is about 5 miles from Manchester and falls within our Greater Manchester coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include M27.

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
First-fix work is about coordination, while the outdoor unit follows the normal planning rules for the property.
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. A survey in Swinton 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.
