Common questions in Eddington
Is Eddington within the area you cover?
Yes. Eddington is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Can I fit air conditioning in Eddington without planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The Eddington Conservation Area is close to the centre of Eddington. Since 2025, an air-to-air heat pump on a house can count as permitted development if it meets the conditions and is not used only for cooling. Listed buildings still need consent, and in a conservation area a road-facing wall or roof is not allowed under those rules. If there’s any doubt, we ask West Berkshire council, which is typically the planning authority for Eddington.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Eddington and across West Berkshire. Let us know who the records should go to.
Where does the outdoor unit go?
It can go on a wall bracket, at ground level or on a flat roof, chosen for the pipe route, airflow and access. Noise near bedrooms and boundaries is part of the decision, and the position can affect planning.
Which type of air conditioning is best?
The right one depends on how many rooms you want to cool, how much space there is outside and how visible you want the indoor units to be. Ducted units need a void or loft, and cassettes need a suspended ceiling, which we check on the survey.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
Air conditioning in Eddington, done properly
Air conditioning isn’t only for summer: most modern splits heat too. The Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning, and a well-chosen system can earn its keep all year round. A lot of the calls we get from Eddington are about one room that’s too hot to sleep or work in. That’s usually a single wall-mounted split, from £1,200 + VAT.
The outdoor unit position is the biggest single decision: airflow, noise towards neighbours, pipe length and access for servicing all count.
For a home in or near Eddington, an air-to-air system can cool in summer and heat in the cooler months, which suits garden rooms, lofts and extensions that the main heating struggles with.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

What happens if it’s left?
The best time to plan air conditioning is before the hot weather, not during it. A rushed choice is often the wrong size or in the wrong place, which is costly to undo. A survey now gives time to choose properly. A system that’s left with a fault, or without a service, usually costs more to run.
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Signs you need air conditioning in Eddington
Commercial spaces gain heat from people, equipment, lighting and glazing. Keeping staff and customers comfortable is usually what prompts the call, along with keeping equipment rooms at a steady temperature.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Rooms that get too hot to sleep or work in
- A portable unit with a hose out of the window
- Rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night
If you commute from Hungerford station and work from home on other days, one wall-mounted unit in the home office is often all that’s needed.
