New build and renovation air conditioning in Aviemore
Here, heat pumps are sized for low winter temperatures and exposed sites. Renovations in Aviemore are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster.
For new Aviemore extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Our Highland coverage takes in Aviemore, about 25 miles from Inverness. Coverage includes PH22.
Prices in Aviemore
In the Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland, our guide range for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £350–£795 per indoor position (first fix), including VAT. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in the Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland tend to be. What moves a quote in Aviemore up or down is mostly pipe length, how high the outdoor unit goes, and whether a new electrical circuit is needed.

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.

At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. We book surveys in Aviemore at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
