Floor console air conditioning in Castle Douglas
Where a house in Castle Douglas has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around.
Where a room in Castle Douglas has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Castle Douglas lies roughly 15 miles from Dumfries, and we cover it as part of Dumfries and Galloway. Homes in DG7 are all within our coverage.

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
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. A survey in Castle Douglas 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.
