Conservatory air conditioning across Fife
In Dunfermline, the indoor unit usually goes on the original house wall inside the conservatory. Conservatories and orangeries in Dunfermline can swing from too hot in July to too cold in January. Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around.

HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them.

Planning and permissions
Scotland has its own permitted development rules for heat pumps and outdoor units, with stricter treatment of listed buildings and conservation areas. We check the current position for your property with you and, if needed, with the council.
The survey
We book surveys in Fife at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. A survey in Fife usually takes one to two hours.
