Air conditioning replacement and removal in Cardigan
In South and Mid Wales, efficient heating is often as important as cooling. Replacements in Cardigan can often reuse an existing bracket and wall opening where they are sound.
During building work in Cardigan, units can be recovered and removed so the job can go ahead safely. Cardigan is about 22 miles from Carmarthen and falls within our Dyfed coverage. Homes in SA43 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Cardigan
For Cardigan, expect roughly £180 to £445 to remove and recover one system, VAT included, adjusted for typical South and Mid Wales rates. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical South and Mid Wales labour rates. Quotes move with the length of the pipe run, where the outdoor unit can sit and how much electrical work the job needs. As an example, the Like-for-like option (replace one system using sound existing routes) would typically be £1,045–£2,045 here.

Planning and permissions
Since 1 June 2026, Welsh permitted development rules for outdoor units closely match England's: up to 1.5 m³, two units on a detached home, one on other homes, and MCS 020a noise compliance. Listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions on units facing a road.
The survey
On a survey in Cardigan 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. We book surveys in Cardigan at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
