Air conditioning replacement and removal in Falmouth

Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks. Units over fifteen years old in Falmouth homes are worth replacing before they fail completely.

Replacements in Falmouth can often reuse an existing bracket and wall opening where they are sound. Falmouth sits around 8 miles from Truro, inside our Cornwall area. We cover TR11 and the streets around them.

Planning and permissions

For most houses in Falmouth, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.

The survey

On a survey in Falmouth the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.

FAQ

Common questions in Falmouth

How soon can you survey in Falmouth?

We offer survey dates when you enquire. Early summer is the busiest time, so spring and autumn are the easiest times to book.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Falmouth?

Most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions. Flats and listed buildings usually need permission or consent. We check on survey.

How long does the installation take in Falmouth?

Removal half a day. We confirm the timing, and any days with no cooling or heating, in your written quote.

Can I get a price for Falmouth without a visit?

Yes, our online guide price tool gives a range in about a minute. A fixed price needs a survey, which is free for new installations.

Is the survey in Falmouth really free?

Yes, for new installations. The survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead.

Is it worth replacing an old system that still works?

If it is R22 or very old, yes, plan a replacement before it fails, because any leak will end it. Newer systems are also far more efficient.
