Most home offices started life as a spare room, a box room or a loft conversion. None of those were designed for someone sitting in them eight hours a day. Loft offices catch the worst of it because heat rises, and a south or west-facing study over the kitchen bakes through the afternoon.
Working in a 29°C room is a real productivity problem, not just a comfort one. You get the afternoon headache, the heavy eyes, the urge to decamp to a cafe. Open the window and you let in traffic noise, hay fever and the neighbour’s mower mid-call. In winter the same room is cold first thing, and warming it with a plug-in heater is slow and pricey.
A working-from-home office needs to be comfortable in February as much as July. Because a modern air con unit is a heat pump, the same unit does both. It cools the room in a summer heatwave and heats it on a cold morning, and it gets the room to temperature fast so you’re not working in a coat for the first hour.
That’s a better fit for a home office than central heating, because you can heat just the office when you start work rather than firing up the whole house at 8am. Run a 3.5kW unit for the cold part of a winter morning and you’re spending pennies per hour, only in the room you’re actually using.
For a typical study or spare-room office, the Bosch Climate 3200i is the default. A++ rated, smart control via the HomeCom app, 5-year guarantee, and the output matched to the room at survey. A 2.6kW or 3.5kW covers most home offices comfortably.
If you’re on video calls all day, the Climate 7000i is worth the step up. From 19dB it’s effectively silent on a call, it’s A+++ for heating and cooling so it’s cheaper to run as a year-round office unit, and it looks like a piece of tech on the wall rather than industrial kit.
A single split system that heats, cools and dehumidifies. Available in cooling outputs from 2.6kW to 7kW, with A++ energy efficiency ratings. Includes a built-in ionizer for improved air quality, plus features such as sleep mode, silent mode and 3D air flow.

Access, pipe run and electrics can move the final figure, which the free survey settles. You get a fixed written quote with no obligation.
Every price above is for one indoor unit and one outdoor unit, installed by our own Gas Safe and F-Gas registered engineers, and backed by the Worcester Bosch manufacturer’s guarantee.
A few things can affect the final figure, such as cooling more than one room, longer pipe runs, or trickier access. That is exactly what the home survey is for. We will confirm the right output for each room, give you a clear written quote, and there is no obligation to go ahead.
Yes. The Bosch Climate 7000i runs from 19dB indoors, quieter than a whisper, so it won’t pick up on your microphone. If you’re on calls all day, that’s the model we’d recommend for a home office.
Yes. The same unit heats and cools, because it’s a heat pump. It warms a cold office in minutes on a winter morning and cools it in a summer heatwave, so it’s a year-round fix, not a summer-only one.
A single split into a home office is typically a one-day job. We give you a clear timescale at the survey based on the room and the pipework route.
