Conservatory air conditioning in Ayr
Conservatories and orangeries in Ayr can swing from too hot in July to too cold in January. Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows.
In Ayr, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory. We cover Ayr as part of Ayrshire, roughly 12 miles from Kilmarnock. That includes the KA7 postcode district.

Planning and permissions
In Scotland, planning conditions for outdoor units depend on the property type and location; conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care.
The survey
A survey in Ayr usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
