Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Brecon
For Brecon landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. Wet South Wales winters make a heat pump's quiet, even heating and dehumidifying mode useful well beyond summer.
If you let a holiday home or annexe near Brecon, one system can warm it before guests arrive and cool it in summer. Brecon lies roughly 40 miles from Newtown, and we cover it as part of Powys. We cover LD3 and the streets around them.

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 1 June 2026, Welsh permitted development rules for outdoor units closely match England's: up to 1.5 m³, two units on a detached home, one on other homes, and MCS 020a noise compliance. Listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions on units facing a road.
