Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Arbroath
Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells. In Arbroath, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
For a kitchen-diner in Arbroath, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Arbroath sits around 16 miles from Dundee, inside our Angus and Dundee area. That includes the DD11 postcode district.

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