Design-led and low-profile air conditioning in Prestwick
In Prestwick, a flat-fronted unit is a neat way to add cooling to a living room without a bulky white box. In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating.
Design-led units suit Prestwick homes with feature walls or open-plan rooms where the unit is always in view. Prestwick lies roughly 10 miles from Kilmarnock, and we cover it as part of Ayrshire. Homes in KA9 are all within our coverage.

Guide prices show VAT at 20%.

If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
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.
