New build and renovation air conditioning in East Cowes
For new East Cowes extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first.
Renovations in East Cowes are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. East Cowes lies roughly 4 miles from Newport, Isle of Wight, and we cover it as part of the Isle of Wight. That includes the PO32 postcode district.

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
Where travel is involved, we agree the survey arrangements and any travel cost up front. On the day, the engineer measures the rooms, checks the electrics and agrees the outdoor unit position with you. Surveys in East Cowes are arranged around travel. We confirm the date and any travel, ferry or accommodation cost in writing before you commit, then the survey covers rooms, pipe routes, electrics and noise as normal.
