How do you cool a building in a town this old?
Carefully, and usually with the council involved from the start. Stratford-on-Avon District Council counts 75 conservation areas, over 3,000 listed buildings and 86 scheduled monuments across its district. Central Stratford has its share, including the Grade II* Tudor building that houses Tudor World.
There are no automatic planning rights for a heat pump within the grounds of a listed building, and you need listed building consent as well for work that affects its character. Read air conditioning in listed buildings before you spend anything. Sources: Stratford-on-Avon District Council; Wikipedia; Planning Portal.
What should hotels and guest houses think about?
About 2.7 million people visit Stratford each year, and summer is when they judge you. A guest room that will not cool down at night means a poor review, and the rooms under the roof usually suffer first. Before choosing a system, check which rooms get the worst of it, how many outdoor units the building can take and whether a guest's window will sit near one. Commercial premises are likely to need a planning application. See commercial air conditioning. Sources: Wikipedia; Planning Portal.
Does the risk of flooding affect where the outdoor unit goes?
If you are near the Avon, it should. The town's riverside position leaves it open to flooding, including flash floods. An outdoor unit is electrical equipment, so if your property has ever had water near it, tell us at the survey. We will look at a raised bracket instead of a ground-level pad, while keeping to the rules on position, because a wall bracket above ground-floor level on a road-facing wall is not permitted development.

Do you cover Shottery, Tiddington and Alveston?
Yes. These were separate villages that now form part of the town's civil parish, and older cottages there may have their own listing or conservation area limits. NFU Mutual is among the area's large employers, and homes further out often have more space, so a rear position is easier. Source: Wikipedia.

What happens after you get in touch?
You tell us about the room
Ring 01926 967778 or send the form with your postcode, and say which rooms bother you and when.
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.
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.
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 Stratford-upon-Avon
Can I have a unit on a timber-framed house?
If the house is listed, you will need consent, and it may not be granted for the front or a timber wall. A detached outbuilding or the rear can sometimes work. Talk to us before you apply.
How many rooms can one outdoor unit serve in a guest house?
A multi-split can serve several rooms, though the number depends on the model and the load. If you have many rooms, you may need more than one system.
Is it too far from Leamington Spa?
No. Stratford-upon-Avon is on our patch. Send your postcode if you are further out, towards Alcester or Bidford-on-Avon.
