Air conditioning for garden rooms

garden room air conditioning

Garden rooms are one of the most popular home improvements today. They provide valuable additional living space for a fraction of the cost of an extension.

Modern garden rooms can be used as a home office, a gym, a studio, or for a small business. Larger garden rooms can also be used as an additional bedroom or annexe, thanks to high-quality insulation.

To get the very best experience of a garden room however, you need year-round climate comfort, and air conditioning is the perfect heating and cooling solution.

Why do you need cooling and heating for garden rooms?

Unlike traditional summerhouses built with a single layer of timber, garden rooms are made with insulated timber panels that make them durable and weatherproof.

However, as timber is warm, the heat will rise rapidly in summer, making it like an oven. And without adequate heating, garden rooms get very cold during winter, and moisture could lead to damp spores developing.

Garden room air conditioning is the ideal solution. A split air conditioning system can provide low-energy cooling and heating all year round, keeping it dry and comfortable. A single air conditioning unit runs off a single outdoor condenser unit, which can be hidden behind or at the side of the garden room.

Can you add a garden room unit to your home air conditioning system?

If you already have air conditioning in the home, you may be able to add another indoor unit to your garden room from your existing outdoor condenser.

Alternatively, if you don’t have home air conditioning, but want to install units in the home in the near future, it may be worth installing a multi-split system allowing to you easily add air conditioning units in your home.

Control via remote or mobile controller

With a single indoor air conditioning unit, you can adjust the set temperatures in your garden room as required, or use the timer to turn it on or off when required.

Better still, modern air conditioning units come with advanced controls including built-in WiFi, allowing you to control the unit and monitor energy use from a mobile device.

Does air conditioning remove pollen and allergens from garden rooms?

Yes! Pollen can bring misery for many during spring and summer, preventing many from even entertaining the idea of a garden room. Air conditioning can eliminate all kinds of harmful air particles, including pollen, dust, toxins, bacteria and other allergens.

The filters that are built-in into air conditioning make it particularly useful for those who suffer from hayfever allergies and asthma, and those who want to use their garden room as a workshop.

What are the benefits of garden room air conditioning?

All home air conditioning systems have multiple features and benefits, including single split air conditioning systems for small spaces and multiple rooms in the home.

The primary benefits include:

  • Low-energy use – up to A+++ in heating and cooling
  • Easy installation – one single indoor unit is connected to one outdoor unit
  • Flexible controls – remote control, WiFi connectivity, voice control via Alexa or Google Home
  • Multiple built-in features – timers, energy monitoring, movement sensors and more
  • Environmentally friendly refrigerant
  • Built-in air purification technology
  • Variable air flow options
  • Indoor units are easy to clean or are self-cleaning.

What type of air conditioning solution is ideal for a garden room?

Depending on the size of your garden room, you are likely to only need one indoor unit.

The ideal type of unit is a wall-mounted unit or a floor-standing unit. Both offer the same great levels of efficiency but you will find a far greater choice of wall units in terms of designs and colours.

Your air conditioning engineer will ensure that the unit has the correct kW to efficiently heat and cool your garden room through all seasons.
