New build and renovation air conditioning in Montrose
For new Montrose extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells.
Renovations in Montrose are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. We cover Montrose as part of Angus and Dundee, roughly 26 miles from Dundee. Homes in DD10 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Montrose
Our Central and Southern Scotland guide price for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £365–£795 per indoor position (first fix), VAT included. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Central and Southern Scotland tend to be. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. For reference, the First and second fix option in Montrose (complete install priced per room including units) usually comes to about £1,345–£2,695.

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%.
Working with your builder
First-fix work is about coordination, while the outdoor unit follows the normal planning rules for the property.
The survey
On a survey in Montrose the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows. We book surveys in Montrose at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
