Multi-split air conditioning in Peebles
In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating. Multi-split is a good fit for Peebles flats and maisonettes where only a balcony or one rear wall is available.
Twin and triple systems suit Peebles homes where bedrooms sit above the kitchen and one rear wall can take the outdoor unit. Peebles lies roughly 15 miles from Galashiels, and we cover it as part of the Scottish Borders. Homes in EH45 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
Outdoor units on Scottish homes can often be installed without a planning application, but the conditions differ from England's, so we confirm the rules for your property at survey.
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. A survey in Peebles usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes.
