Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners in Broxburn
Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells. An extension in Broxburn with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon.
For a kitchen-diner in Broxburn, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. Broxburn lies roughly 11 miles from Edinburgh, and we cover it as part of Edinburgh and the Lothians. We cover EH52 and the streets around them.

Planning and permissions
