Heat load surveys and system design in Peterhead
No two rooms in Peterhead gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Northern Scotland's climate puts the emphasis on reliable, efficient heating, with cooling a minor bonus.
Every Peterhead quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Our Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire coverage takes in Peterhead, about 28 miles from Aberdeen. Postcode districts we cover here include AB42.
Prices in Peterhead
In the Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland, our guide range for heat load surveys and system design is £350–£1,095 for a standalone design pack, including VAT. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland labour rates. The design pack price depends mainly on the number of rooms and whether full drawings and equipment schedules are needed. As an example, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) would typically be £350–£695 here.

The survey
A survey in Peterhead 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. We book surveys in Peterhead at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
