Heat pump
N8
Hornsey
Vaillant aroTHERM plus air source heat pump
The owner wanted the indoor equipment out of the living space, so it went into the loft. The outdoor unit has its own base in the garden. Three days, gas boiler out.

Heat pump
N22
Wood Green
Samsung monobloc air source heat pump
Stood on a levelled base built up out of the border rather than on soil, so the feet stay out of standing water and the unit does not settle out of level over a winter.

Heat pump, solar and battery
N15
Tottenham
Air source heat pump with solar and battery storage
The whole electrical side on one wall: inverter, battery modules and every isolator in reach, with the conduit dressed in straight runs so a fault years from now can be traced without stripping the wall.

N4
Finsbury Park
Vaillant air source heat pump with solar panels and a battery
The panels on the roof run the heat pump through the day and the battery carries it into the evening, so the house buys far less from the grid. The unit sits on raised feet against the rear wall.

Air conditioning
N11
New Southgate
Daikin multi-split condenser
Wall-mounted on brackets rather than stood on the ground, which is usually what a narrow side return leaves you, and the refrigerant lines dropped in a single trunked run.

Heat pump and solar
N21
Winchmore Hill
Air source heat pump with roof-mounted solar
The panels sit across the rear pitch and the heat pump at the side of the house, which is the pairing that lets the pump run on its own generation through the middle of the day.

Winchmore Hill
Mitsubishi Ecodan air source heat pump
An Ecodan stood off the boundary fence far enough that the fan discharge is not bouncing straight back off it, which is what makes a badly sited unit sound louder than it is.

Heat pump
N14
Southgate
Vaillant aroTHERM plus air source heat pump
A gas boiler out and a heat pump in over three days, a few streets from our own base. The unit stands beside the garden decking on anti-vibration feet, with the pipework taken along the fence line.

Muswell Hill and Highgate both carry substantial conservation area coverage. A rear elevation position is nearly always the answer, and it is nearly always available.

The housing stock in Haringey, and what it means for the job
Haringey is Edwardian terrace country, and that shapes every job here. Muswell Hill and Crouch End are large Edwardian houses, often converted into two or three flats, with solid walls, generous ceiling heights and rear elevations that back onto other rear elevations. The good news is that those ceiling heights make a high wall mount discreet. The complication is that so many of the properties are flats within a converted house, which means the outdoor unit position affects a neighbour directly and the freeholder question is nearly always live. Harringay's ladder roads are tight terraces where the side return is the only realistic option, and Tottenham and Wood Green add postwar blocks and newer flats.
The typical Haringey installation
The typical Haringey job is a first-floor flat in a converted Edwardian house, one 3.5kW unit in the main bedroom, outdoor unit on a rear wall bracket, with the freeholder pack sorted before anything is booked.
How far we are from Haringey, and what we have finished nearby

Permission in Haringey
Parts of Haringey are inside conservation areas and parts are not, so the answer genuinely depends on the street rather than on the borough. Outside a conservation area, a house installation that meets the Class G conditions needs no application at all. Inside one, the unit cannot face a highway. We look the street up against the council's boundary map and any Article 4 direction before we quote.
What the housing in Haringey means for permission
61 per cent of homes in Haringey are flats and 39 per cent are houses, so which of the two you have changes the job completely. A house that meets the Class G conditions needs no application at all. A flat needs planning permission and written freeholder consent, whatever the unit or the position. 24 per cent of homes here are in converted buildings rather than purpose-built blocks, which usually means a smaller freeholder and a faster answer. The most common home in Haringey is a flat in a purpose-built block, 35 per cent, which usually means a managing agent, a licence for alterations and a plant position the building decides. By share of houses it is in the lower half of the 21 boroughs we cover north of the Thames.
| Home type | Share of Haringey | What it means here |
|---|---|---|
| Detached | 4% | The easiest, with a choice of elevations |
| Semi-detached | 9% | Usually a side return, the best position there is |
| Terraced | 26% | No side access, so the rear or a bracket |
| Purpose-built flat | 35% | A large share here. Planning permission and freeholder consent, both |
| Converted flat | 24% | A high share. Two permissions, usually a smaller freeholder |
Shares of the 105,092 households counted in Haringey at the 2021 Census, table TS044, rounded. Percentages do not total 100 because homes in commercial buildings and temporary structures are counted separately.

Air conditioning in Haringey: common questions
How much does air conditioning cost in Haringey?
2,400 to 3,200 pounds for a single room. Converted flats cost a little more because access to the outdoor position is often through the property rather than round the side. A two-room system on one outdoor unit is typically 4,300 to 5,800 pounds, and three rooms 6,400 to 8,600 pounds.
Every price includes the units, installation, commissioning, electrical work and VAT. The fixed price comes after a free survey. There is a full breakdown on the cost page.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Haringey?
It depends on which of the two you have. 61 per cent of homes in Haringey are flats, and a flat always needs planning permission for this work.
The section further down this page sets out what the housing stock here means in practice, and every condition is on the planning permission page. We check the conservation area boundary, any Article 4 direction and the listed building register for your exact address before quoting.
How quickly can you get to Haringey?
Fifteen to twenty five minutes from N14, and Wood Green and Hornsey are quicker than that outside rush hour. For a survey we usually offer something within 48 hours, and for a fault call we will tell you the day we can genuinely attend rather than promising one we cannot keep.
Do you install in flats in Haringey?
Yes. 61 per cent of homes in Haringey are flats, 35 per cent of them purpose-built and 24 per cent conversions, so it is a large share of what we do here. It takes two permissions rather than one: the freeholder's written consent and planning permission from the council.
We prepare the licence pack the managing agent will ask for at no charge, including the drawing, the sound data and the insurance. The order the two permissions are done in is what decides whether it is expensive, and there is a full sequence on the leasehold flats page.
