Prices in Lofthouse
In Yorkshire and the Humber, our guide range for air conditioning replacement and removal is £185–£445 to remove and recover one system, including VAT. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Yorkshire and the Humber tend to be. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure.

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.
