Home air conditioning in Old Trafford
Milder summers in the North West mean designing for winter comfort as much as for a heatwave. Old Trafford sits around 3 miles from Manchester, inside our Greater Manchester area. Homes in M16 and M17 are all within our coverage.
Rooms and systems
No two rooms in Old Trafford gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. We size every heat pump in Old Trafford for a cold winter day, then check the cooling side is right for summer. For Old Trafford landlords, swapping storage heaters for a heat pump is one of the more effective EPC improvements. In a house in Old Trafford with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear.
Design-led units, slim floor consoles and concealed ducted systems are all options where a standard white wall unit would look out of place. If heating matters as much as cooling, an air-to-air heat pump sized for winter can replace old electric heaters room by room, and still cool in summer.
Guide prices in Old Trafford
As a guide, homes in Old Trafford can expect £5,195–£14,195 per system for a ducted system, £140–£235 per indoor unit for a deep clean and £1,395–£3,295 per system for conservatory air conditioning, VAT included. Installations are fixed in writing after a free survey; visits are priced before we come.
Planning and permissions
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission. For flats in Old Trafford, the lease and the freeholder's consent come first. Planning rules for blocks of flats are stricter than for houses, and we check them before quoting.
Old Trafford is in the Boiler Upgrade Scheme area, so eligible homes replacing oil, gas, LPG or electric heating may be able to get £2,500 off an air-to-air heat pump, as long as no fossil-fuel boiler stays in use. An MCS-certified installer must claim it; we confirm eligibility, and which installer applies, before you commit.
