New build and renovation air conditioning in Aldershot
First-fix pipework in Aldershot 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 Aldershot extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Aldershot lies roughly 10 miles from Woking, and we cover it as part of Surrey. Homes in GU12 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.
