Vaillant aroTHERM plus air source heat pump
An aroTHERM plus on a poured pad against the boundary fence, with the drain point brought out through the pad so the defrost water has somewhere to go.

Roof-mounted solar array
Panels on a flat roof carried on tilted frames rather than laid flat, which is what brings a London flat roof close to the yield of a south-facing pitch.

Flow and return brought up the wall as one insulated pair in a single clipped run, which is the difference between pipework that looks designed and pipework that looks added.

Bosch air source heat pump
Installed on a flat roof on a raised frame, so the roof covering carries no point load and rainwater still runs freely underneath.

Vaillant twin-fan air source heat pump
A larger twin-fan machine raised onto a brick plinth, which lifts the coil clear of leaf litter and puts the fans above the level a low fence would reflect.

Samsung monobloc air source heat pump
Levelled on packers on an existing tiled patio rather than bolted through it, so the tiling stays intact and the unit still sits dead flat.

Samsung air source heat pump with hydrobox
Heat pump and hydrobox both outside in the side passage, which keeps the whole system out of the house and leaves the cupboard the old boiler used.

Samsung air source heat pump
Sited round the corner from the conservatory glazing rather than beside it, because a fan discharging at glass is the most common cause of a noise complaint about a unit that is running perfectly.

Air conditioning installation in Ealing costs 2,400 to 3,200 pounds for a single room, fitted and including VAT, and takes one day on site.
Ealing has more conservation areas than most outer boroughs, and they are not only round the Broadway. Brentham, Hanger Hill and several streets in Hanwell are covered, so the first check on an Ealing address is the boundary map, not the brochure.

The housing stock in Ealing, and what it means for the job
Ealing is half houses and half flats, 50 and 49 per cent, and the two halves sit in different parts of the borough. Around Ealing Broadway, Ealing Common and Hanger Hill it is large Victorian and Edwardian houses, many of them in conservation areas, and the Brentham Garden Suburb, which is Arts and Crafts and treated accordingly. Acton is Victorian terraces, a great many of them converted into flats, and a newer ring of blocks round the Elizabeth line. Hanwell and West Ealing are tight Victorian terraces with rear additions. Greenford, Perivale and Northolt are interwar semis with side access, which are the straightforward jobs.
The typical Ealing installation
A typical Ealing job is a converted flat in an Acton or West Ealing terrace, one unit in the main bedroom and the outdoor unit on a rear bracket, with the freeholder's consent sorted first. The heat pump in our projects is in West Ealing, W13: a Vaillant aroTHERM plus.

Permission in Ealing
Parts of Ealing are inside conservation areas and parts are not, so the answer genuinely depends on the street rather than on the borough. Outside a conservation area, a house installation that meets the Class G conditions needs no application at all. Inside one, the unit cannot face a highway. We look the street up against the council's boundary map and any Article 4 direction before we quote.
What the housing in Ealing means for permission
Ealing is close to evenly split: 50 per cent houses and 49 per cent flats. Most of our domestic work here is on houses and needs no planning application, provided it meets the Class G conditions. The flats, 35 per cent of homes in purpose-built blocks and 14 per cent in conversions, are the jobs that need a consent pack and a longer programme. The most common home in Ealing is a flat in a purpose-built block, 35 per cent, which usually means a managing agent, a licence for alterations and a plant position the building decides. By share of houses it is in the upper half of the 21 boroughs we cover north of the Thames.
| Home type | Share of Ealing | What it means here |
|---|---|---|
| Detached | 5% | The easiest, with a choice of elevations |
| Semi-detached | 22% | Usually a side return, the best position there is |
| Terraced | 23% | No side access, so the rear or a bracket |
| Purpose-built flat | 35% | A large share here. Planning permission and freeholder consent, both |
| Converted flat | 14% | Two permissions, usually a smaller freeholder |
Shares of the 133,659 households counted in Ealing at the 2021 Census, table TS044, rounded. Percentages do not total 100 because homes in commercial buildings and temporary structures are counted separately.

Air conditioning in Ealing: common questions
How much does air conditioning cost in Ealing?
2,400 to 3,200 pounds for a single room in Ealing. A flat in a conversion usually lands in the upper half, because the outdoor unit goes on a bracket rather than on the ground. A two-room system on one outdoor unit is typically 4,300 to 5,800 pounds, and three rooms 6,400 to 8,600 pounds.
Every price includes the units, installation, commissioning, electrical work and VAT. The fixed price comes after a free survey. There is a full breakdown on the cost page.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Ealing?
Most likely not. 50 per cent of homes in Ealing are houses, and a house installation meeting the Class G conditions is permitted development.
The section further down this page sets out what the housing stock here means in practice, and every condition is on the planning permission page. We check the conservation area boundary, any Article 4 direction and the listed building register for your exact address before quoting.
How quickly can you get to Ealing?
Forty to fifty minutes from N14 round the North Circular, which runs straight past Ealing's eastern edge. For a survey we usually offer something within 48 hours, and for a fault call we will tell you the day we can genuinely attend rather than promising one we cannot keep.
Do you install in flats in Ealing?
Yes. 49 per cent of homes in Ealing are flats, 35 per cent of them purpose-built and 14 per cent conversions, so it is a large share of what we do here. It takes two permissions rather than one: the freeholder's written consent and planning permission from the council.
We prepare the licence pack the managing agent will ask for at no charge, including the drawing, the sound data and the insurance. The order the two permissions are done in is what decides whether it is expensive, and there is a full sequence on the leasehold flats page.
