Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in South Croydon
Many London homes are flats or tall terraces, where heat rises to the top floor and the bedrooms bear the brunt of a hot spell. Top-floor flats and HMO rooms in South Croydon can get uncomfortably hot in summer, which tenants notice first.
For South Croydon landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. Our London coverage takes in South Croydon, about 10 miles from central London. Homes in CR7 and CR9 are all within our coverage.

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.
