Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners across Moray
In Elgin, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. An extension in Elgin with a roof lantern or large glazed doors can overheat quickly on a sunny afternoon. In the Highlands, Islands and the North East of Scotland, systems are sized for cold winter days first.
Prices in Moray
Our Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland guide price for air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners is £1,295–£3,945 per space, VAT included. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in the Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland tend to be. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. For reference, the Large single option in Moray (one 5–7 kW unit for a large glazed space) usually comes to about £1,795–£2,545.
Single unit
One 3.5–5 kW unit for a medium extension.

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.
The survey
At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote.
