Ducted air conditioning in Tredegar
For a renovation in Tredegar, the best time to plan ducted cooling is before the plasterers arrive. South Wales summers can be warm and humid, and winters damp, so a reversible system earns its keep all year.
In an older house in Tredegar, the loft and any existing bulkheads decide whether a ducted layout will work. Tredegar lies roughly 17 miles from Newport, Gwent, and we cover it as part of Gwent. We cover NP22 and the streets around them.

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
Since 1 June 2026, Welsh permitted development rules for outdoor units closely match England's: up to 1.5 m³, two units on a detached home, one on other homes, and MCS 020a noise compliance. Listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions on units facing a road.
The survey
A survey in Tredegar 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. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
