Multi-split air conditioning in St Andrews
Multi-split is a good fit for St Andrews flats and maisonettes where only a balcony or one rear wall is available. Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around.
In a house in St Andrews with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear. Our Fife coverage takes in St Andrews, about 31 miles from Dunfermline. Homes in KY16 are all within our coverage.

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.
