Our coverage in Camborne
In a town like Camborne, a single wall unit for a shop or a cassette for a surgery makes a real difference in summer.
That includes premises in TR14 and the surrounding districts. Nearby, we also cover Redruth (about 6 km), Falmouth (about 17 km) and Truro (about 18 km). In Camborne, outdoor unit positions are often the deciding factor: a rear flat roof or yard is usually straightforward, while a front elevation may need landlord or planning consent first.
What you get
- Condition survey of the existing system
- Pipework re-use assessment, flushing where suitable

Do you also cover Redruth, Falmouth and Truro?
Yes. Alongside Camborne, we also cover Redruth, Falmouth and Truro. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Camborne?
All of them, including TR14. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Will a new system be cheaper to run?
Usually. Modern inverter systems are considerably more efficient than equipment from 15–20 years ago, though savings depend on use.
Is it illegal to use R22 air conditioning?
No — you can keep running an R22 system, but it cannot be maintained with virgin or recycled R22, so most repairs involving the refrigerant circuit are no longer possible.
