Multi-split air conditioning across Dumfries and Galloway
In a house in Dumfries with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear. Twin and triple systems suit Dumfries homes where bedrooms sit above the kitchen and one rear wall can take the outdoor unit. Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around.

Planning and permissions
