Air conditioning for extensions and kitchen-diners across Renfrewshire and Inverclyde
For a kitchen-diner in Paisley, we place the indoor unit clear of the hob and plan the outdoor unit at the rear. In Paisley, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit. Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around.
