How much does it cost to replace air conditioning in Liverpool?
Budget roughly £1,595–£4,350 per indoor unit ex VAT in Liverpool. For a typical job — replacing a 3–4 unit system, re-using sound pipework — expect £5,850–£14,195 plus VAT. Your exact price is fixed in writing once we have surveyed.
Air conditioning replacement is removing an old system — often one using R22 or R410A refrigerant — and installing new, more efficient equipment, re-using pipework where it is safe and compatible.

Before you book in Liverpool
Disposal
Old refrigerant must be recovered by certified engineers and the units disposed of as waste electrical equipment.
Leased premises
If your Liverpool premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Downtime
We schedule the swap to keep the space usable, often over a weekend.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Liverpool often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Who we work with in Liverpool
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
Common questions from businesses in Liverpool
How much does it cost to replace air conditioning in Liverpool?
Guide prices in Liverpool run from about £1,595 to £4,350 per indoor unit, plus VAT. A typical job (replacing a 3–4 unit system, re-using sound pipework) costs £5,850–£14,195 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.
Do you also cover Birkenhead, Wallasey and Litherland?
Yes. Alongside Liverpool, we also cover Birkenhead, Wallasey and Litherland. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Liverpool?
All of them, including L1, L2, L3 and L4. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Is it illegal to use R22 air conditioning?
No — you can keep running an R22 system, but it cannot be maintained with virgin or recycled R22, so most repairs involving the refrigerant circuit are no longer possible.
Will a new system be cheaper to run?
Usually. Modern inverter systems are considerably more efficient than equipment from 15–20 years ago, though savings depend on use.
