How much does it cost to replace air conditioning in Reigate?
Our guide range in Reigate is £1,895–£5,095 per indoor unit before VAT; a typical job (replacing a 3–4 unit system, re-using sound pipework) is £6,850–£16,695 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.
Our coverage in Reigate
In a town like Reigate, a single wall unit for a shop or a cassette for a surgery makes a real difference in summer. Crawley is about 14 km away.
That includes premises in RH2 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Redhill, Horley and Banstead. For air conditioning replacement in Reigate, the survey looks at where the outdoor unit can go, how pipework will reach the indoor units and whether the electrical supply has capacity.
What is included
- Pipework re-use assessment, flushing where suitable

How it works in Reigate
Survey
We record what is installed, its condition and refrigerant, and what can be re-used.
Plan the swap
Removal and installation are scheduled to keep downtime short.
Recover and remove
Refrigerant is recovered into certified cylinders and the old units removed. In Reigate we agree timings around your opening hours.
Install and commission
New units are fitted, tested and commissioned with fresh records.
What to think about in Reigate
Disposal
Old refrigerant must be recovered by certified engineers and the units disposed of as waste electrical equipment.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Reigate are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Downtime
We schedule the swap to keep the space usable, often over a weekend.
Leased premises
If your Reigate 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.

Do you also cover Redhill, Horley and Banstead?
Yes. Alongside Reigate, we also cover Redhill, Horley and Banstead. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Reigate?
All of them, including RH2. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Should we replace R410A systems now?
Not necessarily. If an R410A system is working well and maintained, keep it. Plan replacement when it becomes unreliable or expensive to run.
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.
