Air Conditioning Installation in Darlington

Mitsubishi, Daikin and Fujitsu systems that keep you cool in summer and heat your home efficiently in winter, installed by our qualified engineers.

Modern air conditioning does far more than cool a room. Today’s systems are air-to-air heat pumps, so the same unit that keeps you comfortable on a hot summer’s day also heats your home efficiently through the winter. ALPS Electrical installs Mitsubishi, Daikin and Fujitsu systems for homes and businesses in Darlington. As a family-run, NAPIT-approved company based in Yarm, around 15 miles away, we bring the same care to every air conditioning installation that we do to our solar, battery and EV charger work.

Air Conditioning for Darlington Homes and Businesses

Larger Victorian and Edwardian homes in Darlington’s West End often have rooms that are hard to heat evenly, and a wall-mounted system is a simple fix. Homes in Darlington include victorian and Edwardian homes in the West End, post-war semis in Cockerton and Whinfield, and modern estates on the western edge, and we fit systems in bedrooms, home offices, conservatories, loft conversions and living rooms.

Every system we install is an air-to-air heat pump, so it earns its keep through the winter as well as the summer. We install across West End, Cockerton, Haughton, Whinfield, Hummersknott, Mowden, Harrowgate Hill, Faverdale, Firthmoor, Middleton St George, Hurworth and the town centre.

Quick answer

How much does air conditioning cost to install in the UK?
A single-room Fujitsu split system costs around £2,200 installed. A two-room multi-split system is around £4,500, three rooms around £6,000, and four rooms around £8,000. Prices include the indoor and outdoor units, pipework, electrical connection, installation and commissioning. Because our systems heat as well as cool, home installations currently qualify for 0% VAT until 31 March 2027.

Heating and Cooling in One System

An air conditioning system moves heat rather than creating it. In summer, it draws warmth out of your room and releases it outside. In winter, it works in reverse, extracting heat from the outside air, even on cold days, and bringing it indoors.

Because the system moves heat instead of generating it, it’s highly efficient. A modern unit can deliver several units of heat for every unit of electricity it uses, which makes it one of the most cost-effective ways to heat individual rooms. You get year-round comfort from a single, quiet, wall-mounted unit, controlled from a remote or your smartphone.

Types of Systems

Single split systems

One indoor unit connected to one outdoor unit, ideal for heating and cooling a single bedroom, living room, conservatory or home office.

  • Indoor unit
  • Outdoor unit
  • Airflow


Multi-split systems

Several indoor units run from one outdoor unit, so you can heat and cool multiple rooms, each set to its own temperature, with only one unit outside.

Multi-split air conditioning across three roomsA house cut away to show a bedroom at 18 degrees, a home office at 20 degrees and a living room at 21 degrees, each with its own indoor unit, all piped to one outdoor unit outside. 16°C 18°C 17°C

Smart Control, Whatever the Season

Switch between heating and cooling at the touch of a button, or let the system change automatically to hold your chosen temperature. With smartphone app control, you can warm your home before you get back on a winter’s evening or cool your bedroom before bedtime on a summer’s night. Timers and individual room settings mean you only use energy where and when you need it.
