Air Conditioning in Christchurch

What is different about installing in Christchurch

Bungalows and single-storey homes

Christchurch has an unusually high proportion of bungalows, and that changes the job. There is no floor above to drill into, so pipe runs generally go up into the loft and back down, which keeps trunking off the walls. It also means the indoor unit position is dictated by the ceiling void and the joist runs rather than by convenience, so the survey decides it.

Heating mode is the main event

A large share of customers here are retired and at home during the day, and they use the system for heating far more than cooling. That changes what we recommend: a slightly larger unit sized on heat output rather than cooling load, and time or temperature scheduling set up on handover so the room is warm before anyone is up.

Coastal exposure at Highcliffe and Mudeford

Properties along the cliff and around the harbour take salt-laden wind straight off the Solent. Coated coils and a sheltered condenser position are not optional extras on those installs, they are what makes the unit last.

Floor-standing consoles

Where a high wall unit is not wanted, either on appearance grounds or because a low airflow is preferred for a seated room, a floor console under the window is a good alternative. It is a common choice in Christchurch and something we will offer at survey rather than default to a wall unit.
