Air conditioning replacement and removal across County Down
Units over fifteen years old in Bangor homes are worth replacing before they fail completely. During building work in Bangor, units can be recovered and removed so the job can go ahead safely. Northern Ireland's mild, damp climate makes efficient heating and dehumidifying the main benefits for most homes.
Prices in County Down
For County Down, expect roughly £180 to £445 to remove and recover one system, VAT included, adjusted for typical Northern Ireland rates. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Northern Ireland tend to be.

Planning and permissions

The survey
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. A survey in County Down 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.
