New build and renovation air conditioning in Fishponds
Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling. For new Fishponds extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings.
First-fix pipework in Fishponds extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Fishponds is part of our Bristol coverage. We cover BS16 and the streets around them.
Prices in Fishponds
In South West England, our guide range for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £395–£895 per indoor position (first fix), including VAT. It sits near the middle of UK prices. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. As an example, the First and second fix option (complete install priced per room including units) would typically be £1,450–£2,950 here.

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%.
Working with your builder
Because the pipework is built into the structure, coordination with your builder matters more than planning here; the outdoor unit follows the same rules as any other installation.
The survey
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. We book surveys in Fishponds at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
