New build and renovation air conditioning in Irvine
Scottish summers are mild, so most systems here are chosen first for efficient heating, with cooling for warm spells. First-fix pipework in Irvine extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open.
For new Irvine extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Irvine sits around 6 miles from Kilmarnock, inside our Ayrshire area. Coverage includes KA12.
Prices in Irvine
In Central and Southern Scotland, our guide range for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £365–£795 per indoor position (first fix), including VAT. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Central and Southern Scotland tend to be. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. As an example, the First and second fix option (complete install priced per room including units) would typically be £1,345–£2,695 here.

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
On build projects the main thing is timing with your builder and electrician; we fit first-fix pipework before plastering and agree the outdoor unit position early.
The survey
Surveys in Irvine cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare. A survey in Irvine 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.
