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.
See how an enquiry works
Redditch was designated a new town in 1964, and districts such as Church Hill, Winyates, Woodrow, Matchborough and Lodge Park were built over the following decades. Houses of the same age and construction tend to make installations, and quotations, more predictable.
New-town houses
Most new-town homes have cavity walls, standard room sizes and a rear garden, so the pipe run is short and the outdoor unit goes on a back wall. A single bedroom can often be done in about a day. Some estates have houses arranged around footpaths and shared green spaces rather than roads, so check which side of the house actually faces a road before assuming where the unit can go.
Rented and leasehold homes
A lot of Redditch homes are rented from the council or a housing association, and some flats and maisonettes are leasehold. If you don't own the freehold, get written permission from your landlord or freeholder before arranging a survey.
Older Redditch
Before the new town, Redditch was known for needle making. The older terraces and villas from that time are around the centre, Headless Cross and Astwood Bank. These are more like Kidderminster's terraces, with one outdoor unit allowed, closer neighbours and more thought needed about noise and pipe routes.
Questions from Redditch homeowners
I rent from the council or a housing association. Can I have air conditioning fitted?
Only with your landlord's written permission, because it involves fixing equipment to the outside of the building. Ask them first. Some landlords have their own approved process.
How long does an installation take on a typical Redditch estate house?
Timings vary, but a single room can often be done in about a day, and two or three rooms on a multi-split in around two. The installer will confirm timings in their quotation.
