Planning and permissions

England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.

FAQ

Common questions in Peterborough

How much does air conditioning replacement and removal cost in Peterborough?

Our guide range in the East of England is £220–£545 to remove and recover one system, including VAT. The exact price depends on the rooms, the pipe route and access, and we confirm it in writing after a free survey.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Peterborough?

Most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions. Flats and listed buildings usually need permission or consent. We check on survey.

How soon can you survey in Peterborough?

We offer survey dates when you enquire. Early summer is the busiest time, so spring and autumn are the easiest times to book.

How long does the installation take in Peterborough?

Removal half a day. We confirm the timing, and any days with no cooling or heating, in your written quote.

Who carries out the work in Peterborough?

F-gas certified engineers working for Aircon Installers. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which trades as Aircon Installers, and your quote names who will do the work and the F-gas company certificate that covers it.

Is it worth replacing an old system that still works?

If it is R22 or very old, yes, plan a replacement before it fails, because any leak will end it. Newer systems are also far more efficient.
