Air conditioning replacement and removal in Irvine
Units over fifteen years old in Irvine homes are worth replacing before they fail completely. Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows.
Replacements in Irvine can often reuse an existing bracket and wall opening where they are sound. Irvine sits around 6 miles from Kilmarnock, inside our Ayrshire area. We cover KA12 and the streets around them.
Prices in Irvine
Our Central and Southern Scotland guide price for air conditioning replacement and removal is £180–£445 to remove and recover one system, VAT included. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in Central and Southern Scotland tend to be. Quotes move with the length of the pipe run, where the outdoor unit can sit and how much electrical work the job needs. For reference, the Like-for-like option in Irvine (replace one system using sound existing routes) usually comes to about £1,045–£2,045.

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.
The survey
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. The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote.
