Prices in Nairn
Our Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland guide price for air conditioning for landlords and rental homes is £995–£5,295 per property, one room to the whole let, VAT included. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in the Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland tend to be. Quotes move with the length of the pipe run, where the outdoor unit can sit and how much electrical work the job needs. On our Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland figures, the Two rooms option (two rooms on separate systems or a twin multi-split) is about £2,095–£3,245.
Single room
One wall unit for a bedroom or studio.
Two rooms
Two rooms on separate systems or a twin multi-split.
Whole let

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.
The survey
The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote. 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.
