This is an estimate based on average 2026 prices. Actual costs may vary. Always request multiple quotes for an exact price.

Cost factors

The total cost usually consists of:

  • Indoor and outdoor unit: 45-60% of the total
  • Installation and refrigerant piping: 25-35% of the total
  • Electrical connection and wiring: 10-15% of the total
  • Wall penetrations, brackets, and finishing: 5-10% of the total

These percentages can vary depending on the chosen system, power, and length of the piping.

Why do prices vary?

  • Single-split vs. multi-split: A single-split cools or heats one room and is cheaper. A multi-split with multiple indoor units on one outdoor unit is more expensive but more efficient for multiple rooms.
  • Capacity and room size: The required power (expressed in kW or BTU) depends on the size and insulation of the room. An incorrectly sized system is inefficient.
  • Brand and EPC rating: Brands like Daikin and Mitsubishi Electric are more expensive to purchase but have higher COP values and last longer than cheaper alternatives.
  • Pipe length and wall penetrations: The more meters of piping to be laid and the more walls to be drilled through, the higher the installation costs.

Subsidies & incentives

In Belgium, a standard cooling-only air conditioning system usually does not qualify for a fixed grant. Only systems that also count as an air-to-air heat pump under regional rules may be eligible.

Flanders

  • Check whether your system qualifies under Mijn VerbouwPremie as an air-to-air heat pump. A regular cooling installation without the required specifications does not receive automatic support.
  • The installation must be carried out by a certified refrigeration or HVAC installer.

Wallonia and Brussels

  • Here too, eligibility mainly depends on whether the system is recognised as a heating solution rather than cooling only.
  • In Brussels, check current support via Homegrade or the RENOLUTION portal, because scheme details can change.

What usually matters more

  • For homes older than 10 years, installation by a contractor can often qualify for 6% VAT.
  • Electrical upgrades, condensate drainage, and pipe length often affect the total price more than any grant.

  • good delivery access in many neighborhoods
  • regular demand for facade, roof, and garden work
  • balanced local market with broad housing mix
  • generally standard site conditions
  • good supply of regional contractors
  • a certified refrigeration or HVAC installer is legally required for refrigerant work
  • pipe length and number of wall penetrations also determine the installation price
