New build and renovation air conditioning in Hawick
In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating. For new Hawick extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings.
First-fix pipework in Hawick extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Hawick is about 13 miles from Galashiels and falls within our Scottish Borders coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include TD9.

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.
