Office air conditioning is a cooling and heating system designed for the heat loads of an office: people, computers, lighting and sunshine through glazing.
Glasgow and surrounding areas
We cover all of Glasgow, from the centre to the business parks and industrial estates on its edges. Each town below has its own page with local guide prices.
Postcode districts we cover include G1, G11, G14, G20, G32, G43, G51 and G76. Buildings across Glasgow range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
What you get
- Heat load assessment per zone (occupancy, IT, lighting, solar gain)
- Zoned design so meeting rooms can be controlled separately
- Ceiling cassettes, ducted units or wall units to suit the ceiling
- Central or local controls, scheduling and set-point limits
- Commissioning, handover and F-gas records

How it works in Glasgow
Survey the floor
We look at the ceiling void, the grid layout, window orientation, occupancy and where the outdoor plant can go.
Zone the space
Open-plan, meeting rooms, reception and IT rooms are treated as separate zones with their own controls.
Coordinate the ceiling
Unit positions are set against the lighting and grid layout so cassettes and grilles sit neatly. We keep work areas in Glasgow screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Install around the business
Work is phased by area or done out of hours so staff can keep working.
Commission and train
Controls are set with sensible limits and scheduling, and we show your facilities lead how to manage them.
What to think about in Glasgow
Draughts and noise
Units are positioned so air does not blow directly onto desks, with quiet fan speeds selected for meeting rooms.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Glasgow often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Fresh air
Air conditioning recirculates air; it does not provide fresh air on its own. Many offices need ventilation alongside it to meet the Building Regulations.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
Who we work with in Glasgow
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
Two rules matter for most businesses in Scotland: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for systems of 12 kW or more.
FAQs for Glasgow
How much does office air conditioning cost in Glasgow?
Guide prices in Glasgow run from about £2,050 to £4,750 per zone, plus VAT. A typical job (office of about 150 m² with 4–6 zones) costs £8,595–£23,500 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.
Does office air conditioning provide fresh air?
No — it heats and cools the air already in the room. Fresh air comes from ventilation, which we can design alongside the cooling.
What size air conditioning does an office need?
As a rough guide, offices need about 80–125 W of cooling per square metre, more with lots of glazing, dense occupancy or IT. A heat load survey gives the real figure for each zone.
