How much does air conditioning installation in Ostrava cost
The most common query we receive from people in Ostrava is straightforward, how much will it cost? Installation of a single wall-mounted split unit starts at 27 990 Kč incl. VAT, including the unit itself, materials and labour. For flats with multiple rooms where one outdoor unit serves several rooms, a multisplit solution is calculated, here the price depends on the number of indoor units and their placement.
We don't hide the price behind a "custom quote" - we give it straight over the phone based on the number of rooms and house type. The exact amount is then confirmed after a brief survey, either in person or from photos of the flat.
What affects the price
The base price assumes a standard installation: a short run between the indoor and outdoor units, an easily accessible façade and a standard electrical connection. In practice, the price varies mainly due to:
- Distances between units - a longer refrigerant pipe run means more materials and labour.
- Type of house - A panel building, an insulated facade, a brick rental house in the centre or a detached house each have different requirements for wall penetration and securing the outdoor unit.
- Floor and access - A higher floor in a panel building on an estate may require a platform or climbing equipment instead of a standard ladder.
- Electrical installation - if a new separate circuit from the distribution board is required, this will be charged separately.
Therefore, the exact amount is confirmed only after the survey, but for a typical flat with one unit, we stick to the base price in the vast majority of cases.

Typical job in Ostrava
Most of the enquiries we receive in Ostrava are similar: an apartment in an older brick building in Moravská Ostrava, where the main concern is a careful penetration through a thick wall without damaging the façade, or a flat in a panel block in Poruba or Dubina, where it is crucial to agree on placing the outdoor unit on a balcony or façade so that the entire housing cooperative does not have to deal with it separately. In detached houses in Stará Bělá or Krásné Pole, placing the outdoor unit in the garden or on the gable wall is usually easier, but longer runs to individual rooms need to be addressed.
If you live in a block of flats, read this beforehand as well. as is usual with the consent of the housing cooperative or the building's owners' association - this will save you waiting right before installation. And if you are still unsure about the required capacity and type of unit, take a look at the overview. How to choose an air conditioner for a flat.
Before you call
Please prepare the number and size of rooms, the apartment's orientation relative to the cardinal directions, and information on whether the building is managed by the building's owners' association or a housing cooperative. With these details, we can provide you with the price and an indicative installation date during your first phone call.
Frequently asked questions about installation
Do I need to be home for the survey?
For a simpler apartment, photos of the room and the façade or balcony where the outdoor unit is to be installed are often sufficient. For more complex layouts, longer runs or unclear positioning, an on-site survey is more accurate; we will arrange it for a time that suits you.
Do you also handle rental flats?
Yes, installation in a rented flat is the same as in an owned one: the only difference is that consent for work on the façade or drilling must be given by the property owner, or by the building's owners' association or housing cooperative if common areas are involved. We recommend having this consent arranged before scheduling the installation date.
How long does the installation itself take?
Installing a single split unit in a standard flat typically takes technicians one working day: from mounting both units, through wall penetration and connecting the refrigerant and electrical lines, to the trial run. With a multisplit system featuring multiple indoor units or more complex piping routes, the installation time is extended.
