Balcony-mounted outdoor units are often the neatest solution for flats in Bellshill. In central and southern Scotland, heat pump heating is usually the main reason to install, especially in homes on electric heating.

Consent and planning for flats

Flats need more care: get your freeholder's written consent first, and expect the planning rules for a block of flats in Bellshill to be stricter than for a house. In Scotland, flats are treated differently from houses under permitted development, so we confirm the position with the council where needed.

The survey

A survey in Bellshill 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. Surveys in Bellshill cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
