Ducted air conditioning in Egham
For a renovation in Egham, the best time to plan ducted cooling is before the plasterers arrive. The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first.
Ducted systems suit Egham loft conversions and new extensions where ceilings are being boarded anyway. Egham lies roughly 8 miles from Woking, and we cover it as part of Surrey. We cover TW20 and the streets around them.
Prices in Egham
Our South East England guide price for ducted air conditioning is £6,645–£18,245 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. For reference, the Zoned option in Egham (motorised dampers or two units for separate floors or room groups) usually comes to about £9,095–£13,345.

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
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
The survey
A survey in Egham 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.
