Conservatory air conditioning in Greenwich
In London, heat soaks into brick and concrete during the day and comes back out at night, which is when it is hardest to sleep. In Greenwich, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory.
If your conservatory in Greenwich faces south, that is where overheating is worst. Greenwich lies roughly 5 miles from central London, and we cover it as part of London. Homes in SE10 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Greenwich
Our London guide price for conservatory air conditioning is £1,895–£4,545 per system, VAT included. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. As an example, the Popular option (5 kW unit with Wi-Fi for a medium conservatory or orangery) would typically be £2,445–£3,445 here.
Essential
3.5 kW unit for a small lean-to or Edwardian conservatory.
Popular
5 kW unit with Wi-Fi for a medium conservatory or orangery.
Premium
7 kW or console-plus-wall setup for large glazed rooms.
Guide prices show VAT at 20%. HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them. If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey

A survey in Greenwich usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes.
