Air conditioning for period and listed homes in Llandrindod Wells
South Wales summers can be warm and humid, and winters damp, so a reversible system earns its keep all year. If your home in Llandrindod Wells is Victorian, Edwardian or older, a console or concealed system often works better than a high wall unit.
If your Llandrindod Wells home is listed or in a conservation area, consent comes first and we provide what the council needs to see. We cover Llandrindod Wells as part of Powys, roughly 19 miles from Newtown. Postcode districts we cover here include LD1.
Prices in Llandrindod Wells

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 Llandrindod Wells 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. In Wales, outdoor units of up to 1.5 m³ that meet MCS 020a noise limits are usually permitted development on houses; listed buildings need consent, and in conservation areas a unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road.
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. 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.
