Air conditioning in Kenilworth

Across Kenilworth and CV8 we install and maintain air conditioning for family homes, new-build estates and local businesses. If a bedroom or home office overheats, a reversible unit brings it under control in summer and takes the chill off in winter, whether you are near the castle or on the edge of town.

Where are Kenilworth's conservation areas?

The town's neighbourhood plan describes one large and three small conservation areas, split into many character areas. Kenilworth Castle, north-west of the town centre, is a scheduled monument, with a history that takes in a siege in 1266 and being slighted in 1649.

If you are inside one of those areas, a wall or roof facing the road is ruled out under permitted development, as is the ground between house and road. That usually leaves the back garden or a side wall set well back. Sources: Warwick District Council; Planning policy context; Planning Portal.

Are the new estates around Kenilworth treated differently?

They can be. The neighbourhood plan makes provision for around 2,000 new homes, about a 20% rise in the town's housing, with 760 of them at Thickthorn and Glasshouse. One application for land east of the town sought 550 homes on its own. The area's population is expected to grow from about 23,000 to about 28,000.

Newer homes fall under Part O of the Building Regulations, in effect since 15 June 2022, which requires them to be designed against overheating. They should stay cooler than older equivalents, though a top-floor room or west-facing bedroom can still get too warm. Before fitting anything, look for a planning condition or a covenant limiting outside plant. Sources: Planning policy context; Kenilworth Nub News; Warwick District Council; Planning Portal.

What suits a typical Kenilworth family house?

Most jobs start with the main bedroom, or a home office in a converted loft. On a detached house, the first two outdoor units can be permitted development, so you might fit a single unit now and add another later. A semi or terrace gets only the first, which makes a multi-split a better plan if you think you will want several rooms done. See air conditioning for loft conversions if yours is under the roof.

What happens after you get in touch?

  1. You tell us about the room

    Ring 01926 967778 or send the form with your postcode, and say which rooms bother you and when.

  2. We survey the building

    We measure up, check the walls and the power, ask about the lease or listing, and agree a place for the outdoor unit. A written price follows.

  3. Consents come before drilling

    If a landlord, a freeholder or the council has to say yes, that happens now. Nothing goes on a wall until it has.

  4. We fit, test and hand over

    Units, pipework and power go in, then the system is pressure tested and started up. You leave with the certificates and know the controls. Yearly servicing keeps it right.

Questions from Kenilworth

How far is Kenilworth from you?

It is within our normal patch from Leamington Spa, a few miles up the A452. Send your postcode if you are out towards Burton Green or Balsall Common.

I live near the castle. Is that a problem?

Being near it is not the issue. Whether your own house is listed or in a conservation area is what counts, and we check that first.

My new-build has a warranty. Will drilling affect it?

It might. Check your warranty and your deeds before the survey, and tell us what you find. We will plan the wall penetration to suit.
