Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Thamesmead

For Thamesmead landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. 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.

Top-floor flats and HMO rooms in Thamesmead can get uncomfortably hot in summer, which tenants notice first. Thamesmead is about 11 miles from central London and falls within our London coverage. Homes in SE2 and SE28 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.
