Chester’s a brilliant place to live, but fitting air conditioning here? It’s a bit of a maze. Narrow alleys, strict conservation officers, and thick medieval brick mean you can’t just slap a unit on the outside wall and call it a day. We’ve been navigating this city’s quirks for years.
We know which streets have easy van access and which ones need a permit from the council. We know the conservation officers by name, and they know us. We’ve threaded pipework through disused chimney breasts on Bridge Street, hidden outdoor units in rear courtyards behind Handbridge’s townhouses, and fitted compact wall units in flats overlooking the racecourse.
Princes LHS Ltd, a Worcester Bosch accredited installer, bringing premium air conditioning to Chester with a proper understanding of the city’s heritage, parking restrictions, and conservation rules.
We’ve designed these around the most common calls we get from Chester, from flats to listed shops.

Every part of Chester has its own personality, and its own installation headaches. Here’s what it’s actually like working with us in your area.
Chester’s famous Rows are a medieval marvel, but they’re a nightmare for modern installations. We’ve learned to work around it. Just last month, a retail owner up on Bridge Street Row asked us to cool their shop floor without altering the external timber façade. We ended up threading flexible pipework straight up through a disused 18th‑century chimney breast. The outdoor unit sits completely out of sight on the rear flat roof, fully approved by the council. That’s the kind of job you can’t do without knowing the building’s bones.
Over the Dee, Handbridge and Queen’s Park are a mix of Victorian townhouses and riverside flats. Beautiful spot, but tight rear access and conservation rules make every job a puzzle. We had one Victorian property where the only sensible place for the outdoor unit was a narrow courtyard you could barely swing a cat in. We used a compact condenser, lifted it over a wall with a rope and pulley (no crane, wouldn’t fit), and had it up and running by teatime. The owner said it was the quietest thing they’d ever heard. And we sorted their planning query with the conservation officer the same week.
Hoole’s Victorian red‑brick terraces are solid, and I mean solid. Regular masonry bits just bounce off. We carry specialist diamond core drills for Hoole jobs, and we always check for old gas pipes before we start drilling. Parking’s a nightmare on those narrow terraced streets, we sort our own council parking passes before we even turn up, so you’re not stuck trying to save a space for us. And with so many Hoole residents working remotely these days, we usually fit the 19dB 7000i, you’ll hear a pin drop before you hear the fan.
Garden Quarter, the student flats near the university, and the commercial units along Watergate Street, they’re a different beast. Student flats need robust, easy‑to‑use systems that can take a bit of abuse. Commercial jobs need to be done outside trading hours. We fitted a system in a student block on Parkgate Road over a weekend, the landlord said we were in and out before any of the residents noticed. For the coffee shops and offices, we quote, we schedule, we turn up when you’re closed, and we’re gone before you open. No fuss, no lost trade.

Very professional company The workmen were very prompt and the work ethic is second to none. Would definitely recommend this company .Posted on Google James DPTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience, we had a large solar array and battery backup. After service has been very good and always on hand.Posted on Google Mr & Mrs EdmondsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Princes LHS install Solar and a Tesla PW3, The installation was neat and tidy, cable runs are discreet and the work was completed in good time. Our main reason for going for a company in the area was incase of future issues which is where they really shine, We had an issue after a few months installation by an separate electrician working on our home who blew the main power wall fuse by the time anyone realised what happened it was out of hours however the team at Princes offered to help and didn't want to leave us with no power overnight no matter the time.Posted on Google Anthony RexTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I chose Princes LHS because I wanted a Samsung heat pump and they are a Samsung approved installer with good reviews. It was a good choice. They are very knowledgeable and the installation was handled very well. I went on to have a Tesla home battery and solar panels installed by them and everything has been great.Posted on Google Alan ColburnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great company, fair prices. Staff all very communicative, the fitters did a wonderful neat job. Would recommend to anyone.Posted on Google Martin JuddTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Princes LHS have installed an ASHP and a solar system, including a Tesla Powerwall 3, at our property. The installation was very smooth with good communication throughout the process. The quality of workmanship was second to none. The workmen were always punctual and worked in a tidy manner, always cleaning up as they went and at the end of the day Highly recommended!Posted on Google Ricardo SilvaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Princes LHS Ltd highly enough. They completely transformed our home into a fully electrified, incredibly efficient setup. They installed our solar panels, Samsung air source heat pump, battery storage, and electric hob. From start to finish, their customer service was absolutely top-notch—professional, deeply knowledgeable, and always happy to answer questions. But the real proof is in the results. Thanks to the flawless system they installed, we are running our heating and powering the entire house for absolute pennies. By combining their setup with a smart energy tariff, we’ve completely shielded ourselves from peak grid prices, and our solar exports are effectively paying our bills. If you want to future-proof your home and drop your energy costs to near zero, Princes LHS is the company to use. Five stars!Posted on Google Sofi ReadingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a heat pump and new radiators fitted in our dated home. The staff were friendly and great, we even went to work and let them carry on in our home. :) We will be definitely using them again!Posted on Google Peter HigginsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional company. From beginning to end we were kept fully informed of progress regarding delivery, installation and permit requirements. Installation teams for both Air source heating and solar plus battery were extremely competent and tidy and very pleasant. Any gremlins were dealt with quickly. We would have no hesitation in recommending Princes LHS Ltd.Google rating score: 4.4 of 5, based on 30 reviews
