Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Kilburn
London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset. For a kitchen-diner in Kilburn, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear.
An extension in Kilburn with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. Kilburn lies roughly 5 miles from central London, and we cover it as part of London. That includes the NW6 postcode district.
Prices in Kilburn
For Kilburn, expect roughly £1,895 to £5,845 per space, VAT included, adjusted for typical London rates. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. 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. On our London figures, the Large single option (one 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space) is about £2,695–£3,745.
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
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
A survey in Kilburn 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. 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.
