Multi-split air conditioning in Irvine
Multi-split is a good fit for Irvine flats and maisonettes where only a balcony or one rear wall is available. Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows.
In a house in Irvine with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear. We cover Irvine as part of Ayrshire, roughly 6 miles from Kilmarnock. We cover KA12 and the streets around them.
Prices in Irvine

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
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.
