Prices in Esher
Our South East England guide price for conservatory air conditioning is £1,745–£4,195 per system, VAT included. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in South East England. 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 £2,245–£3,145 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%.

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.
