Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Gloucester
An extension in Gloucester with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. South West summers are milder on the coast, but sheltered towns and south-facing rooms still overheat, and efficient winter heating matters just as much.
For a kitchen-diner in Gloucester, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. We cover Gloucester and the rest of Gloucestershire, including Cheltenham and Stroud. Coverage includes GL1.
Prices in Gloucester
Budget around £1,450–£4,450 per space including VAT for air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in and around Gloucester. That is close to the UK middle for this kind of work. What moves a quote in Gloucester up or down is mostly pipe length, how high the outdoor unit goes, and whether a new electrical circuit is needed. As an example, the Large single option (one 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space) would typically be £2,050–£2,850 here.
Single unit
One 3.5–5 kW unit for a medium extension.
Large single
One 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space.
Twin units
Two indoor units on a multi-split for long or L-shaped spaces.
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
We book surveys in Gloucester at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. 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.
