Design-led and low-profile air conditioning in Alloa
Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around. Design-led units suit Alloa homes with feature walls or open-plan rooms where the unit is always in view.
In Alloa, a flat-fronted unit is a neat way to add cooling to a living room without a bulky white box. Alloa sits around 6 miles from Stirling, inside our Stirling, Falkirk and Clackmannanshire area. We cover FK10 and the streets around them.

Guide prices show VAT at 20%. 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. 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.
The survey
On a survey in Alloa the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows. A survey in Alloa 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.
