Wall-mounted air conditioning in Chippenham
A single wall-mounted unit is often all a bedroom or sunny living room in Chippenham needs. In the South West, a system that heats well through damp winters is often as valuable as summer cooling.
Where a home in Chippenham faces the street, the outdoor unit usually goes at the rear, out of sight. Chippenham is about 16 miles from Swindon and falls within our Wiltshire coverage. That includes the SN15 postcode district.

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.

Planning and permissions
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
The survey
A survey in Chippenham 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 Chippenham cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
