Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Bicester
Top-floor flats and HMO rooms in Bicester can get uncomfortably hot in summer, which tenants notice first. Hot spells reach the South East early, which makes spring the easiest time to arrange an installation.

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
For most houses in Bicester, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
