Split air-conditioner installation in Groningen

In Groningen prices start from € 1500 per job for an average home. Many student properties and pre-war homes: attic rooms under the roof heat up strongly in summer — exactly where the indoor unit usually goes.

A split unit for one room costs € 1,500 to € 2,500 including installation and commissioning. A multi-split for several rooms comes to € 2,500 to € 5,000, depending on the number of indoor units. The outdoor unit's position and the pipe length matter too: a wall bracket or roof console costs extra installation time.

In many cases no: at the rear of the house or in the garden an outdoor unit can often be placed without a permit. On a listed building, in a protected townscape or on the front facade a permit is often required, and municipalities apply the rules differently. In an apartment you additionally need the owners' association's (VvE) approval. Do the permit check with your municipality before installation.

Newly placed outdoor units of air conditioners and heat pumps are subject to a legal noise limit: at the neighbours' the unit may produce at most 40 decibels in the evening and at night. A good installer factors this into the position and advises a low-noise setup or enclosure where needed.

The refrigerant in an air conditioner is a potent greenhouse gas. Work on the refrigerant circuit — connecting, filling, repairing or pumping down — is therefore legally reserved for certified engineers and companies (the F-gas regulations; the Dutch STEK quality mark builds on them). We verify that certification before a company receives requests.
