Why Our Internal Air Conditioning Units Are Perfect For Flats

One big problem when you live in a flat is keeping cool during the hot summer months. Most apartments are prepared for the winter with super-efficient insulation. The same can’t be said about the summer. This is when you need to embrace internal air conditioning units for flats.

These systems provide your flat with a welcome alternative to popular cooling methods. They are also well suited to the layout and structure of modern flats.

Very often, opening a window will only draw in warm heat. A fan will circulate warm air.

Suppose you wonder about the benefits of installing a Cool You internal air conditioning solution in your flat. These systems have many benefits.

Below, we explore why our internal air conditioning units are perfect for flats.

1. You don’t need planning permission for our internal air conditioning units for flats

This is one of the biggest reasons for installing a Cool You internal air conditioning unit in your flat. You usually don’t need planning permission.

This is a huge advantage. Traditional air conditioners with external condensers are not permitted in most London apartments.

Not having to request planning permission cuts down on paperwork, and planning and preparation won’t have to take months.

Our internal air conditioning units do not require planning permission because they do not directly impact your neighbours or exterior property.

The solution is self-contained within your apartment. It does not cause an obstruction outside. Both the wall mount and the condenser are tucked away inside. There will be no disturbance to the outside look of the building or to your neighbours.

In most cases, planning permission is not needed. However, we always advise you to double-check that installation is permitted with your landlord, property manager, or your lease.

2. Retrofit or ideal for a refurbishment

One of the biggest worries individuals have when considering installing an internal air conditioning system is the amount of mess that might be created. Will there be damage to internal walls and decor?

The good news is that installing a Cool You internal air conditioning solution will cause no changes to your existing decor. If you’ve recently decorated, you needn’t worry about having to redecorate after installation.

One popular type of installation choice is a retrofit. This works with your existing decor to make a stunning contemporary feature in keeping with your tastes. The only thing on show is the wall-mount, which blows air into the room. This is ideal for all apartments in London, including listed properties or new builds.

If you’re undergoing a refurbishment or renovation, we also have a ducted unit that could work for you. We’ll talk to your contractor and install the unit during construction, so the solution can be incorporated into the overall design so that it is completely hidden.

3. Modern and sleek design for internal air conditioning units

Cool You’s internal air conditioning units are sleek, modern, and perfect for contemporary living.

They require no outside condensing unit, as the condenser is installed discreetly within the flat.

This can be anywhere within the property, but in most cases, the condenser is housed under the sink or in a cupboard. This is made possible because the condenser is incredibly compact.

We design ultra-contemporary air conditioning solutions with sleek and easy-to-use features.

The wall-mount unit is sleek and white, with no branding visible. It also has unique features like Wifi control and iFeel temperature. Just as our homes are equipped with the very latest technology for cooking and lighting our homes, the Cool You solution will blend effortlessly into the tech-friendly and modern apartment.

4. Quiet air conditioning system

Most people assume that air conditioners are noisy when switched on. This is not true with a Cool You internal solution.

Our system is whisper quiet, even when set on high, operating at just 26 decibels. This is ideal if you work from home or don’t want a noisy unit interrupting family movie night.

If you prefer to sleep with the air conditioning, then our whisper-quiet technology is perfect. It won’t keep you awake; instead, it will improve your sleep quality as you’ll be cool and comfortable.

Not only are quiet internal air conditioning units good for you during the day and night, but they are also great for your neighbours.

When you live in such proximity, you don’t want to hear your neighbours. They also don’t want to hear your noisy air con unit. So Cool You is a perfect option for apartment owners.

5. Blackout system in the bedroom

Space is often limited in small flats. If you choose to have the air conditioning unit in your bedroom, the good news is that it comes with a blackout option.

This means there will be no bright lights or flashing LEDs while the system operates.

This will prevent your room from being flooded with light while you sleep, which could otherwise wake you up.

It’s also advantageous to use this blackout feature in an open-plan flat. It will create a sense of calm and reduce distractions as you sit and watch TV, eat dinner, unwind or have guests over.

It’s also a great feature if you work from home in an open-plan room.

6. Controlled via WiFi

The entire air conditioning system is Wi-Fi enabled and can be controlled via the front panel or the remote control.

So, if you are in the kitchen and the unit is in the living room, you can use the remote control or even your smartphone via our app to lower or increase the room temperature.

This can be done anywhere in your flat, allowing you to work and move as you wish. It can also be done anywhere worldwide, perfect for those concerned about leaving the air con on while away.

Switching from the front of the unit to the remote control is also instantaneous and very easy.

All you have to do is push a button. The iFeel feature also allows you to adjust the temperature directly surrounding you in the immediate space.
