Common questions
The stuff people ask us most.
How much does home air conditioning cost?+
A single-room split unit is usually £1,500 to £3,000 fitted, depending on the brand and how easy access is. Multi-room installs scale from there. Every quote you get from a Cooler Spaces installer is a fixed price with no hidden extras.
How long does installation take?+
Most domestic single-room installs are done in one day. Larger installs across several rooms usually take two to three days. The installer will confirm timings before you commit.
Will air conditioning heat my home in winter too?+
Yes. Modern air conditioning units are heat pumps - they cool in summer and heat in winter. Many customers use them as a cheap top-up to their heating.
Is it noisy?+
Indoor units are quiet, usually about the same as a fridge. Outdoor units are louder but still under 60 decibels at close range, and installers position them away from bedrooms where possible.
Do I need planning permission?+
For most houses the answer is no. Flats, listed buildings, and conservation areas may need permission. Your installer will flag it if you do.
What if I am renting?+
Renters need written permission from the landlord before installation starts. We flag rented properties on the form so installers know to ask.
How does Cooler Spaces make money?+
Installers pay us a small fee for each quote request we send them. That fee never gets added to your quote - we make our money from the installers, not from you.
Is my information safe?+
Your details go to up to 3 vetted installers who send you a quote and nothing else. We do not sell your data. See our privacy policy for the detail.
What if I do not like any of the quotes?+
That is fine. There is no obligation to accept any quote. Tell us or the installer directly and that is the end of it.
Do you cover commercial installs?+
Yes. Offices, shops, restaurants, and warehouses - if it needs cooling, we can match you. Pick "My business" on the quote form.
