Wall-mounted air conditioning in Shepherds Bush
In London, heat soaks into brick and concrete during the day and comes back out at night, which is when it is hardest to sleep. A single wall-mounted unit is often all a bedroom or sunny living room in Shepherds Bush needs.
In a semi or terrace in Shepherds Bush, the indoor unit often goes on a back bedroom wall with the outdoor unit on a bracket below. Our London coverage takes in Shepherds Bush, about 4 miles from central London. Postcode districts we cover here include W12.
Prices in Shepherds Bush
Our London guide price for wall-mounted air conditioning is £1,495–£3,895 per room, VAT included. London is one of the dearer parts of the UK for trades, which shows in the range. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. On our London figures, the Popular option (quieter mid-range unit with Wi-Fi control and better seasonal efficiency for a living room) is about £2,045–£2,845.

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%.
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.
