New build and renovation air conditioning in Newtownards
For new Newtownards extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. In Northern Ireland, cooling is mostly needed in conservatories and glazed rooms, while efficient heating benefits the whole home.
Renovations in Newtownards are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. Newtownards lies roughly 5 miles from Bangor, County Down, and we cover it as part of County Down. We cover BT22 and BT23 and the streets around them.
Prices in Newtownards
Our Northern Ireland guide price for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £365–£795 per indoor position (first fix), VAT included. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Northern Ireland tend to be. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. On our Northern Ireland figures, the First and second fix option (complete install priced per room including units) is about £1,345–£2,695.

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
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.
