Floor console air conditioning in Wick

Where a house in Wick has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. Northern Scotland's climate puts the emphasis on reliable, efficient heating, with cooling a minor bonus.

Where a room in Wick has deep cornicing or a picture rail, a console keeps the walls above it clear. Wick sits around 78 miles from Inverness, inside our Highland area. That includes the KW1 postcode district.

Prices in Wick

Guide prices around Wick run from £1,195 to £2,645 per room including VAT. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. As an example, the Popular option (quieter console with Wi-Fi control for a living room) would typically be £1,545–£2,095 here. These figures exclude travel to Wick. Any travel, ferry or accommodation cost is quoted separately, in writing, before anything is booked.

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

Where travel is involved, we agree the survey arrangements and any travel cost up front. On the day, the engineer measures the rooms, checks the electrics and agrees the outdoor unit position with you. In Wick we often start with photos, room measurements and the make of any existing system, so the survey visit is focused and any travel cost can be quoted in writing first.

FAQ

Common questions in Wick

Can I get a price for Wick without a visit?

Yes, our guide price tool gives a range in about a minute, and photos and measurements help us firm it up before any travel is arranged.

Is the survey free in Wick?

Surveys here are by arrangement. Any travel cost is quoted to you as a fixed amount before you book, so there are no surprises.

Do you cover Wick?

Yes, by arrangement. We confirm dates and any travel cost in writing first, and group visits where we can to keep costs down.

Who carries out the work in Wick?

F-gas certified engineers working for Aircon Installers. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which trades as Aircon Installers, and your quote names who will do the work and the F-gas company certificate that covers it.

Are floor consoles quieter than wall units?

They are similar. Because they sit lower in the room you may notice the fan a little more at high speed, so we size them so they normally run on a low setting.
