Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Greenwich
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. If you let a holiday home or annexe near Greenwich, one system can warm it before guests arrive and cool it in summer.
For Greenwich landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. Greenwich is about 5 miles from central London and falls within our London coverage. We cover SE10 and the streets around them.
Prices in Greenwich
Guide prices around Greenwich run from £1,495 to £7,845 per property, one room to the whole let including VAT. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. Quotes move with the length of the pipe run, where the outdoor unit can sit and how much electrical work the job needs. For reference, the Two rooms option in Greenwich (two rooms on separate systems or a twin multi-split) usually comes to about £3,095–£4,795.
Single room
One wall unit for a bedroom or studio.
Two rooms
Two rooms on separate systems or a twin multi-split.
Whole let
Three or four rooms, with a service plan.
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.
