Ducted air conditioning in Nuneaton
Ducted systems suit Nuneaton loft conversions and new extensions where ceilings are being boarded anyway. Inland West Midlands towns can see sharp summer peaks, and the same system doubles as an efficient heater in winter.
For a renovation in Nuneaton, the best time to plan ducted cooling is before the plasterers arrive. Nuneaton is one of the main towns we cover in Warwickshire, alongside Rugby and Leamington Spa. That includes the CV11 postcode district.
Prices in Nuneaton
In the West Midlands, our guide range for ducted air conditioning is £5,345–£14,645 per system, including VAT. That is broadly in line with national guide prices. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. As an example, the Zoned option (motorised dampers or two units for separate floors or room groups) would typically be £7,295–£10,745 here.

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 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.
