Home AC installation across Hampshire

For most Hampshire 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. Winchester city centre has significant conservation area and listed building coverage. Portsmouth and Southampton also have conservation areas in their historic quarters. Your installer will confirm requirements during the site visit.

Yes — we install in waterfront and marina properties regularly across Hampshire. Salt air corrosion is the main consideration for properties close to the coast or tidal water. We specify corrosion-resistant outdoor units for these installations. Your installer will confirm the right specification and assess external unit placement during the site visit.

Yes, though listed building consent is required in addition to any planning permission. Winchester has one of the highest concentrations of listed buildings in Hampshire, particularly in the city centre and surrounding villages. Rear elevations and courtyard positions are typically approved more readily than front-facing locations. Your installer will advise on the most appropriate approach for your specific property.
