Wall-mounted air conditioning in Wishaw
Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows. In a semi or terrace in Wishaw, the indoor unit often goes on a back bedroom wall with the outdoor unit on a bracket below.
Where a home in Wishaw faces the street, the outdoor unit usually goes at the rear, out of sight. Wishaw is about 5 miles from Hamilton and falls within our Lanarkshire coverage. Homes in ML2 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions
In Scotland, planning conditions for outdoor units depend on the property type and location; conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care.
