Multi-split air conditioning in Selkirk
Multi-split is a good fit for Selkirk flats and maisonettes where only a balcony or one rear wall is available. Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells.
In a house in Selkirk with a usable loft, multi-split pipes can often run through it so the front stays clear. Selkirk lies roughly 5 miles from Galashiels, and we cover it as part of the Scottish Borders. We cover TD7 and the streets around them.

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.
