Design-led and low-profile air conditioning in Stranraer
Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows. Design-led units suit Stranraer homes with feature walls or open-plan rooms where the unit is always in view.
In Stranraer, a flat-fronted unit is a neat way to add cooling to a living room without a bulky white box. Our Dumfries and Galloway coverage takes in Stranraer, about 57 miles from Dumfries. Homes in DG9 are all within our coverage.

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
In Scotland, planning conditions for outdoor units depend on the property type and location; conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care.
