Looking too hear of anyone who has it at home and any recommended installers. Too late for this heatwave but no doubt they'll be others and working from home in a Sauna is not ideal!

We bought a ‘portable’ air con unit for the bedroom which cost about £250 before delivery/warranty.Keep in mind that it does take a bit of fiddling about to get them operating. There is a big tube that needs to go out the window/out a door to suck the hot air out of the room.Quite often it means also needing to set up a seal that covers the length of the door/window.But once that’s all done, then it works quite well - as long as you can put up with the noise.0

Thanks, I'm probably going to go with a permanent install as our upstairs gets very hot (5 beds and a study).cafctom said:We bought a ‘portable’ air con unit for the bedroom which cost about £250 before delivery/warranty.Keep in mind that it does take a bit of fiddling about to get them operating.

Our living room is uninhabitable when it's sunny so looking to get similar as well.
Came across www.boxt.com that seems very easy to use but it came in at over £2k and no idea if that's a rip off or not so have held off for the moment.

Have a portable unit in the front room with the hose stuck out the window. Window not sealed, but trust me it's better than having a load of fans blowing. Noticeably different.0

I saw them and did a quote yesterday, but for some reason couldn't do more than one room, seemed steep to me and I reckon they just palm out (with mark up) to a local installer anyway.Jac_52 said:Our living room is uninhabitable when it's sunny so looking to get similar as well.

What about our old sponsor, Andrews - they did Aircon I think and are Charlton fans. Win win.
Having said that, we used the lot below who did a decent job, were quick and not too expensive. It was before the summer and on a loft extension whilst it was being built. They were recommended to me by a friend who used them too.

Thanks all, I did consider Andrews but appear to be commercial only.0

I dropped him an email and he replied within 4 minutes so he's winning on the service front so far!Todds_right_hook said:
