Bedrooms and loft conversions
If a bedroom stays hot at night, unit position and noise levels matter as much as cooling capacity. Read what to discuss with an installer.

Step 1 of 2Two short steps. An independent installer then contacts you. There is no obligation to go ahead.
Free survey
Enquiring through this site is free and does not commit you to anything. Ask the installer whether their survey is free before they visit. We do not carry out surveys.
F-Gas certified installers
Installation must be carried out by an appropriately F-Gas-certified business. It is reasonable to ask the installer for their certificate before work starts.
Warranty
Manufacturer warranties and any cover for the installation are set by the equipment maker and the installer. Check both on the written quotation before you agree to the work.
How it works
You tell us which rooms you want to cool. We pass the enquiry to an independent installer serving your area, and you decide whether to go ahead.

Which rooms do you want to cool?
You can start with one room. These guides explain the main things to consider before speaking to an installer.
Home offices and garden rooms
A reversible system can cool a workspace in summer and heat it in colder weather. The room’s insulation, windows and power supply all affect the options.
Garden office air conditioningLiving rooms and extensions
Large windows and roof lanterns can make a room hard to keep cool. An installer can assess that room on its own or as part of a multi-room system.

Choosing an air conditioning system
A fitted split system is far quieter and more efficient than a portable unit, and it doesn't need a hose hanging out of the window. Each system is sized to the room, taking account of its windows, which way it faces and its ceiling height, so it runs quietly instead of struggling. The installer can recommend suitable systems and available brands following a survey.
Portable vs fitted air conditioningSingle-room split system
One indoor wall unit connected to a compact outdoor unit. It's the usual choice for a bedroom, home office or garden room.
Multi-split system
Several indoor units connect to one outdoor unit, with individual room controls. The installer will assess capacity, pipework routes and suitable outdoor placement.
Whole-home design
For larger homes, the system is sized and planned room by room. This may use more than one outdoor unit, or ducted units hidden in a loft or ceiling void.
Not sure which system fits? Say how many rooms and the installer will advise.
Get a free quoteWhat affects installation costs?
A price given over the phone without seeing the house is only a guess, so most installers will want to survey before giving a quotation. When you get one, check what it includes (equipment, installation, commissioning and making good) and ask whether, and when, the price is fixed.
Running costs depend on the unit, your tariff, the room and how you use it. Our guide explains how to estimate them on your own tariff.
Read the costs guideWhat sets the price
- How many rooms and whether they share one outdoor unit
- Room size and aspect which set the size of each indoor unit
- The pipe run and how far it travels between the indoor and outdoor units
- Where the outdoor unit sits on a wall bracket, on the ground or on a flat roof
- Wall construction including solid stone, timber frame or cavity brick
- Electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed

Get a free quoteHeating as well as cooling
A reversible split system is an air-to-air heat pump. It can run in reverse to heat the room, so some people use it to warm a single room on cool spring and autumn evenings.
Air conditioning can dehumidify while it's running, which may help reduce indoor humidity on a muggy day in the Severn or Avon valley. Many systems include filters designed to capture airborne particles. Performance varies by model, and filters need regular cleaning.
If your home heats with oil or LPG, which is common in the rural parts of the county, an air-to-air system can provide room heating alongside your existing system. Whether that saves money depends on your fuel prices, electricity tariff and how you use it.

If yours isn't here, the installer can answer it when they contact you.
Who carries out the installation?
Worcester Air Conditioning doesn't carry out installations. An independent local installer handles the survey, quotation, installation and aftercare. We arrange the introduction; any contract for the work is with them.
What happens to my details?
We use the details you provide to handle your enquiry and pass it to an independent installer serving your area so they can contact you about it. Worcester Air Conditioning may receive a fee for the introduction. Please see our Privacy Policy for full details.
How much does home air conditioning cost?
It depends on how many rooms you want to cool, the size of each room, and how far the pipework has to run to the outdoor unit. The only reliable figure is a quotation from an installer based on your home, usually after a survey. Our costs guide explains what affects the price.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Worcestershire?
Often not. Since May 2025, a reversible air-to-air system that heats as well as cools can count as permitted development on a house, within size, number and noise limits. Listed buildings, flats and homes in conservation areas have extra restrictions. The installer should check your property, and you can confirm with your council.
Which rooms benefit most?
Usually bedrooms, especially loft rooms and rooms facing south or west. Home offices, garden rooms and open-plan kitchens with lots of glass come next. Most people start with one or two rooms rather than the whole house.
Can it heat my home as well?
Yes. A reversible split system is an air-to-air heat pump, so it can heat the rooms it serves as well as cool them, for example on cool spring and autumn days.
Is it expensive to run?
It depends on the unit's efficiency, your electricity tariff, the room and how you use it. Our costs guide shows how to estimate running costs on your own tariff, with the assumptions set out.
How long does installation take?
Timings depend on the property and the system. A single-room installation often takes around a day, and multi-room systems take longer. The installer will confirm timings in their quotation.
Where does the outdoor unit go?
Usually on a rear or side wall bracket, on a flat roof, or on a small base in the garden, as close to the indoor unit as sensibly possible. The installer should agree the position with you before any work starts.
