New build and renovation air conditioning in Washwood Heath
First-fix pipework in Washwood Heath extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. In the West Midlands, sizing for winter heating first and then checking summer cooling usually gives the best all-year system.
For new Washwood Heath extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Washwood Heath lies roughly 3 miles from Birmingham, and we cover it as part of the West Midlands. Coverage includes B8 and B9.

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.
