Floor console air conditioning in Selkirk
If your home in Selkirk is bay-fronted or period, a console often suits it better than a high wall unit. In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating.
Where a house in Selkirk has a bay window, a console can sit where the radiator was. We cover Selkirk as part of the Scottish Borders, roughly 5 miles from Galashiels. We cover TD7 and the streets around them.

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.
