    Yeh I admit I panic bought air con. 30-40 degrees in a modern house which holds the heat for days is no fun at all. &nbsp;I used to actually stop playing games on my gaming PC as it was too hot. &nbsp;No more! &nbsp;Got a 5kw unit installed and leave my bedroom and bathroom doors open and it cools the entire flat down. &nbsp;The last 2 weeks I&apos;ve slept like a baby. &nbsp;Best thing I&apos;ve ever bought!!!

    One of the important reasons for UK houses becoming hot is because K-glass was fitted standard in UK homes. &nbsp;This glass allows radiant energy from the sun to enter the window, but then blocks the re-emitted heat from the from inside the room. &nbsp;It was fitted to keep the room warm in the cold weather using &quot;solar gain&quot;. &nbsp;They make UK windows a huge problem from summer heat as they capture the heat from the sun, then don&apos;t let the heat out. &nbsp;<br>It is necessary to stop the sun going through the window in the first place , velux windows are designed to have a external blind fitting within the frame, you can purchase these from abroad quite cheaply, though velux of sells these too. &nbsp;You just extend these OUTSIDE the velux window to block 90% of the solar gain.<br>You can fit external blinds on normal house windows (you need to use the term &quot;screen&quot; in google) outside, but professional ones are very expensive, but they are magic stopping &gt;95% of the solar gain. &nbsp;You can buy cheap DIY ones from Germany (from many internet places like A.....n) &nbsp;but they only stop 50-60% of the solar gain.

    Can you do a video explaining the profit for installers and the costs associated with starting installing air con. I have guys working for me and I’m thinking of setting up for air con installs but not sure the profit and if it’s worth it for the initial outlay with F gas qualification etc. thanks.

    How easy is it to install such systems in mid terraced houses?

  • @JP-wo4ic · 2 months ago

    I love the outdoor unit being butt right up to a garden tap! Is that so you can keep the condenser cool?
