Internal Air Conditioning in a Victorian Mansion Block in Marylebone

Internal Air Conditioning in a Victorian mansion block was thought to be impossible! Recently, we completed a highly successful air conditioning installation at Montagu Mansions. This exquisite Victorian mansion block is nestled in the heart of Marylebone. The project specifically focused on implementing internal air conditioning solutions. It addressed the unique challenges that come with these historical buildings and their mansion block style. This style often raises questions about the feasibility of incorporating modern air conditioning blends.

To begin with, we collaborated closely with the apartment owner to identify effective air conditioning options for multiple rooms within this stunning property. Although the building is unlisted in the Portman Estate Conservation area, it is recognised as a structure of merit. It is akin to Victorian mansion blocks famed for internal air conditioning adaptations. This means it faces similar restrictions to listed buildings. Consequently, we needed to devise a solution that adhered to these guidelines. It also had to provide a comfortable climate for the residents.

Internal Air Conditioning Without Planning Permission!

Given these challenges, we specified our entirely internal wall-mounted air conditioning systems. These innovative units required no external alterations, making them ideal for Victorian mansion blocks needing internal air conditioning solutions. Consequently, they integrated seamlessly with the apartment’s existing services. Given that the apartment had already undergone a significant renovation, we coordinated with the client’s marble and ceramic specialists. This ensured that all internal finishes were restored sympathetically. It helped preserve the property’s original charm, typical of Victorian mansion blocks with internal air conditioning.

Moreover, we installed air conditioning systems that boast energy efficiency and a discreet design in both the main bedroom suite and the home office. This attention to detail highlights our commitment to blending modern technology with the aesthetic requirements of a home built in the Victorian mansion block style.

Furthermore, our team meticulously planned the installation process to minimise disruption for the client. We installed two air conditioning systems over two working days, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. Remarkably, due to the internal nature of the installation characteristic of Victorian mansion blocks, no planning permission was required for this project. This expedited the project timeline significantly.
