Air conditioning for landlords and rental homes in Hawick
Top-floor flats and HMO rooms in Hawick can get uncomfortably hot in summer, which tenants notice first. Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows.
For Hawick landlords, simple wall units with limited remotes are the easiest systems for tenants to live with. We cover Hawick as part of the Scottish Borders, roughly 13 miles from Galashiels. We cover TD9 and the streets around them.
Prices in Hawick

That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Central and Southern Scotland labour rates. What moves a quote in Hawick up or down is mostly pipe length, how high the outdoor unit goes, and whether a new electrical circuit is needed. As an example, the Two rooms option (two rooms on separate systems or a twin multi-split) would typically be £2,145–£3,345 here.

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
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. 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.
