How much does it cost to replace air conditioning in Stratford?
In Stratford, guide prices run from about £2,095 to £5,695 per indoor unit, plus VAT. A typical job (replacing a 3–4 unit system, re-using sound pipework) usually comes to £7,595–£18,550 plus VAT. The fixed price follows a free survey.
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.

The steps for a project in Stratford
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.

Refrigerant is recovered into certified cylinders and the old units removed. In Stratford we agree timings around your opening hours.
Install and commission
New units are fitted, tested and commissioned with fresh records.
Points to plan for in Stratford
Pipe re-use
Re-use depends on pipe size, condition, cleanliness and the new refrigerant. We test before relying on it.
Leased premises
If your Stratford 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.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Premises we work in around Stratford
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
- Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
