Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Redditch
Away from the coast, West Midlands summers can turn hot quickly, and bedrooms under the roof are the first to suffer. If you let a holiday home or annexe near Redditch, one system can warm it before guests arrive and cool it in summer.
For Redditch landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. We cover Redditch as part of Worcestershire, roughly 14 miles from Worcester. Postcode districts we cover here include B97.

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.
The survey
The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote. 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.
