New build and renovation air conditioning in Battersea
First-fix pipework in Battersea extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset.
For new Battersea extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Our London coverage takes in Battersea, about 2 miles from central London. Homes in SW11 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
On build projects the main thing is timing with your builder and electrician; we fit first-fix pipework before plastering and agree the outdoor unit position early.
