Prices in East Kilbride

It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Central and Southern Scotland tend to be.

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

In Scotland, planning conditions for outdoor units depend on the property type and location; conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care.
