New build and renovation air conditioning in Liverpool
For new Liverpool extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. In the North West, heating efficiency is often the main benefit, with summer cooling a welcome bonus.
First-fix pipework in Liverpool extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. We cover Liverpool and the rest of Merseyside, including Birkenhead and St Helens. We cover L1, L2, L3, L5, L6 and 3 more and the streets around them.
Prices in Liverpool
In North West England, our guide range for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £375–£845 per indoor position (first fix), including VAT. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in North West England tend to be. Longer or hidden pipe runs, high-level brackets and electrical upgrades are the usual reasons a quote lands at the top of the range.

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
First-fix work is about coordination, while the outdoor unit follows the normal planning rules for the property.
The survey
A survey in Liverpool usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. 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.
