Multi-split air conditioning in Speke
In a house in Speke with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear. In the North West, heating efficiency is often the main benefit, with summer cooling a welcome bonus.
Multi-split is a good fit for Speke flats and maisonettes where only a balcony or one rear wall is available. Speke sits around 7 miles from Liverpool, inside our Merseyside area. Postcode districts we cover here include L24.
Prices in Speke

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.
