Air conditioning for period and listed homes in Deeside
If your home in Deeside is Victorian, Edwardian or older, a console or concealed system often works better than a high wall unit. Exposed coastal sites in North Wales call for outdoor units placed out of the wind and salt spray where possible.
If your Deeside home is listed or in a conservation area, consent comes first and we provide what the council needs to see. Deeside sits around 11 miles from Wrexham, inside our Clwyd area. That includes the CH5 and CH1 postcode districts.

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%.
Listed building consent
Period homes in Deeside that are not listed can usually follow the normal rules for outdoor units, but listed buildings always need consent, and conservation areas restrict units on elevations facing a road. In Wales, outdoor units of up to 1.5 m³ that meet MCS 020a noise limits are usually permitted development on houses; listed buildings need consent, and in conservation areas a unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road.
The survey
A survey in Deeside 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. Surveys in Deeside cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
