Home AC installation across Kent

For most Kent houses, air conditioning falls under permitted development — no planning permission required. Exceptions include listed buildings, conservation areas where the unit is visible from a public road, and flats or apartments. Canterbury and Tunbridge Wells both have significant conservation area coverage. Your installer will confirm during the site visit whether permission is needed.

Yes — we install in coastal properties regularly across Kent. The main consideration is salt air corrosion on the outdoor condenser unit. We specify corrosion-resistant units for properties within close proximity to the coast. Your installer will confirm the right specification during the site visit.

Yes. Oast houses and Kent’s older rural properties often have solid brick or stone walls which require core drilling — this adds a small amount to labour cost. If the property is listed, listed building consent will be required alongside any planning permission. Your installer will assess the walls and advise on the most appropriate approach during the site visit.

We cover all of Kent including TN, ME, DA, and CT postcodes. This covers Tunbridge Wells, Maidstone, Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, Canterbury, Folkestone, Ashford, Dartford, Gravesend, Chatham, Rochester, Sittingbourne, Deal, and Dover. Enter your postcode above to confirm coverage instantly.

Your installer will be in touch as quickly as possible after your request to arrange a site visit. Most Kent installations are completed within 1–2 weeks of the site visit. During peak summer months demand increases — submitting your request early gives you priority in the queue.
