Air conditioning for period and listed homes in Craigavon
If your Craigavon home is listed or in a conservation area, consent comes first and we provide what the council needs to see. Damp Northern Ireland winters make a heat pump's dehumidifying mode useful well beyond the summer.
For period homes in Craigavon, we look at consoles in place of radiators and ducted units from the loft before anything else. Craigavon is one of the main towns we cover in County Armagh, alongside Portadown and Armagh. That includes the BT62, BT63, BT64, BT65, BT66 and BT67 postcode districts.
Prices in Craigavon
Our Northern Ireland guide price for air conditioning for period and listed homes is £1,495–£7,295 per home, one room upwards, VAT included. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Northern Ireland labour rates. What moves a quote in Craigavon up or down is mostly pipe length, how high the outdoor unit goes, and whether a new electrical circuit is needed. For reference, the Concealed option in Craigavon (ducted unit from a loft or void serving one or two rooms) usually comes to about £3,145–£4,995.

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%.
Listed building consent
Period homes in Craigavon that are not listed can usually follow the normal rules for outdoor units, but listed buildings always need consent, and conservation areas restrict units on elevations facing a road. Planning rules for outdoor units in Northern Ireland differ from Great Britain's, so we check your property with you and the council where needed.
The survey
On a survey in Craigavon the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows. Surveys in Craigavon cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
