Rooms and systems
For self-builds and extensions in Burgess Hill, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Twin and triple systems suit Burgess Hill homes where bedrooms sit above the kitchen and one rear wall can take the outdoor unit. Drip and drain faults are a common reason a system in Burgess Hill stops working properly in the first hot week. In Burgess Hill, a side wall of a single-storey extension is usually the neatest place for the indoor unit.
Many homes start with one or two rooms. A system can be designed so that more rooms are added later without replacing the outdoor unit. Design-led units, slim floor consoles and concealed ducted systems are all options where a standard white wall unit would look out of place.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Burgess Hill, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey. Flats need more care: get your freeholder's written consent first, and expect the planning rules for a block of flats in Burgess Hill to be stricter than for a house.
If your home in Burgess Hill is replacing fossil fuel or electric heating, and no gas, oil or LPG boiler stays in use, an MCS-certified air-to-air heat pump may qualify for the £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, which the MCS-certified installer claims and deducts from the price.
