Heat load surveys and system design in Aberdeen
In the Highlands, Islands and the North East of Scotland, systems are sized for cold winter days first. For self-builds and extensions in Aberdeen, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.
No two rooms in Aberdeen gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. We cover Aberdeen and the rest of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, including Peterhead and Banchory. Postcode districts we cover here include AB10, AB11, AB12, AB13, AB15 and 3 more.
Prices in Aberdeen
Guide prices around Aberdeen run from £350 to £1,095 for a standalone design pack including VAT. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in the Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland tend to be. Larger homes, more zones and full drawing sets for a builder are what move a design pack towards the upper figure. As an example, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) would typically be £350–£695 here.

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 Aberdeen 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. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
