Wall-mounted air conditioning in Plymstock

Where a home in Plymstock faces the street, the outdoor unit usually goes at the rear, out of sight. Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks.

In a semi or terrace in Plymstock, the indoor unit often goes on a back bedroom wall with the outdoor unit on a bracket below. Plymstock sits around 2 miles from Plymouth, inside our Devon area. Postcode districts we cover here include PL9.
