Floor console air conditioning across Fife
Where a house in Dunfermline has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. If your home in Dunfermline is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit. Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells.

Longer or hidden pipe runs, high-level brackets and electrical upgrades are the usual reasons a quote lands at the top of the range.

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
Outdoor units on Scottish homes can often be installed without a planning application, but the conditions differ from England's, so we confirm the rules for your property at survey.
The survey

On a survey in Fife the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
