Air conditioning for flats and apartments in Reigate
The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first. Newer blocks in Reigate with balconies are often the simplest flats to fit.
Balcony-mounted outdoor units are often the neatest solution for flats in Reigate. We cover Reigate as part of Surrey, roughly 16 miles from Woking. We cover RH2 and the streets around them.
Prices in Reigate
Our South East England guide price for air conditioning for flats and apartments is £1,645–£7,245 per flat, one room to the whole flat, VAT included. South East England is one of the dearer parts of the UK for trades, which shows in the range. 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 South East England figures, the Two rooms option (twin multi-split for living room and main bedroom) is about £3,245–£4,795.
Single room
One wall unit with a balcony outdoor unit.
Two rooms
Twin multi-split for living room and main bedroom.
Whole flat
Three or four rooms on one outdoor unit, concealed routes.
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%.
Consent and planning for flats
For flats in Reigate, the lease and the freeholder's consent come first. Planning rules for blocks of flats are stricter than for houses, and we check them before quoting. In England, permitted development allows one outdoor unit of up to 0.6 m³ on a block of flats; anything more needs planning permission.
The survey
A survey in Reigate 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.
