Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Washwood Heath
For Washwood Heath landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. Away from the coast, West Midlands summers can turn hot quickly, and bedrooms under the roof are the first to suffer.
Top-floor flats and HMO rooms in Washwood Heath can get uncomfortably hot in summer, which tenants notice first. We cover Washwood Heath as part of the West Midlands, roughly 3 miles from Birmingham. Postcode districts we cover here include B8 and B9.

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%.

For most houses in Washwood Heath, 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.
