Multi-split air conditioning in Stroud
Multi-split is a good fit for Stroud flats and maisonettes where only a balcony or one rear wall is available. In the South West, a system that heats well through damp winters is often as valuable as summer cooling.
In a house in Stroud with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear. We cover Stroud as part of Gloucestershire, roughly 8 miles from Gloucester. Coverage includes GL5.

Two rooms on one outdoor unit, wall-mounted indoor units, standard routes.

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 Stroud, 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.
The survey
We book surveys in Stroud at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. On a survey in Stroud the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
