Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Aberdare
Top-floor flats and HMO rooms in Aberdare can get uncomfortably hot in summer, which tenants notice first. South Wales summers can be warm and humid, and winters damp, so a reversible system earns its keep all year.
For Aberdare landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. Aberdare sits around 15 miles from Bridgend, inside our Mid Glamorgan area. Postcode districts we cover here include CF44.

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
Wales removed its old 3 m boundary rule on 1 June 2026, so most houses in Aberdare can now have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the MCS 020a noise condition. Listed buildings still need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions.
The survey
A survey in Aberdare 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. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
