Wall-mounted air conditioning in Cowbridge
In South and Mid Wales, efficient heating is often as important as cooling. Where a home in Cowbridge faces the street, the outdoor unit usually goes at the rear, out of sight.
A single wall-mounted unit is often all a bedroom or sunny living room in Cowbridge needs. Cowbridge is about 11 miles from Cardiff and falls within our South Glamorgan coverage. That includes the CF71 postcode district.

Planning and permissions
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
At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. A survey in Cowbridge 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.
