New build and renovation air conditioning in Ryde
First-fix pipework in Ryde extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Summers in the South East are among the warmest in the country, so cooling often comes first, with efficient winter heating as a bonus.
For new Ryde extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Our Isle of Wight coverage takes in Ryde, about 6 miles from Newport, Isle of Wight. That includes the PO33 postcode district.

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
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. In Ryde we often start with photos, room measurements and the make of any existing system, so the survey visit is focused and any travel cost can be quoted in writing first.
