Wall-mounted air conditioning across County Down
In a semi or terrace in Bangor, the indoor unit often goes on a back bedroom wall with the outdoor unit on a bracket below. A single wall-mounted unit is often all a bedroom or sunny living room in Bangor needs. Damp Northern Ireland winters make a heat pump's dehumidifying mode useful well beyond the summer.

If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
