Air Conditioning Installation in Ormskirk
Home Air Conditioning in Ormskirk and West Lancashire
Lancashire Air Conditioning installs air conditioning for homes in Ormskirk, Aughton, Burscough and the surrounding West Lancashire villages. We plan every system around the house, from Victorian town houses near the centre to detached homes and farmhouses out on the plain.
We are not the cheapest installer, and we are typically booked several weeks in advance, particularly as summer approaches. If you would rather have a system that is designed and fitted properly, we would be very happy to help.

Why Ormskirk Homes Warm Up
West Lancashire is flat and open, so many homes have little shade from surrounding buildings or trees. South and west-facing rooms can take the full force of the afternoon sun, and upstairs bedrooms often stay warm well into the night.
Larger detached houses in Aughton and the surrounding villages tend to have big glazed extensions and conservatories, while newer homes in Burscough and Ormskirk are well insulated and slow to cool down.
Planning the Right System
Before we recommend anything, our team looks at:
Which rooms overheat, and when during the day
The size of the room and how much glazing it has
Where the outdoor unit can go with the least visual impact
How the pipework can be routed neatly
Whether heating in winter is just as important as cooling in summer
Farmhouses and Rural Properties
Out towards Scarisbrick, Halsall and Rufford, properties often have more outside space, which gives more choice of outdoor unit position. Older farmhouses with thick walls need careful routing, and we plan this at the survey.
Common Reasons for Installing

Hot Upstairs Rooms

A steady, comfortable temperature for working from home.
No more fans in summer or heaters in winter.

Ormskirk Air Conditioning FAQs
Where should the indoor unit go?
Usually high on a wall where the air can circulate around the room without blowing directly onto a bed or desk. In some rooms, a floor-standing unit works better. We will recommend the best position at the survey.
Is it worth installing if I already have central heating?
Many people find it is. Air conditioning cools in summer, and in winter it can heat rooms that the central heating struggles with, such as extensions and conservatories, often more efficiently than plug-in heaters.
Do I need planning permission?
Not usually for a house. Since May 2025, air conditioning systems that heat and cool have been covered by permitted development in England, provided conditions such as noise limits are met. Listed buildings, flats and conservation areas need extra checks. See our planning permission guide for details.
Do you offer servicing?
Yes. Regular air conditioning servicing keeps your system efficient and reliable, and we can arrange this once your system is installed.
