Ducted air conditioning in Wimbledon
Many London homes are flats or tall terraces, where heat rises to the top floor and the bedrooms bear the brunt of a hot spell. For a renovation in Wimbledon, the best time to plan ducted cooling is before the plasterers arrive.
Ducted systems suit Wimbledon loft conversions and new extensions where ceilings are being boarded anyway. Wimbledon sits around 6 miles from central London, inside our London area. Postcode districts we cover here include SW19.
Prices in Wimbledon
For Wimbledon, expect roughly £7,195 to £19,745 per system, VAT included, adjusted for typical London rates. London is one of the dearer parts of the UK for trades, which shows in the range. Longer or hidden pipe runs, high-level brackets and electrical upgrades are the usual reasons a quote lands at the top of the range. For reference, the Zoned option in Wimbledon (motorised dampers or two units for separate floors or room groups) usually comes to about £9,845–£14,445.

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
For most houses in Wimbledon, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote. On a survey in Wimbledon the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
