Floor console air conditioning in Hayes
Where a house in Hayes has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. In London, heat soaks into brick and concrete during the day and comes back out at night, which is when it is hardest to sleep.
Where a room in Hayes has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Hayes is about 13 miles from central London and falls within our London coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include UB3 and UB8.
Prices in Hayes
Budget around £1,795–£3,895 per room including VAT for floor console air conditioning in and around Hayes. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. As an example, the Popular option (quieter console with Wi-Fi control for a living room) would typically be £2,295–£3,095 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
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.
