Heat load surveys and system design across Bedfordshire
Every Luton quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. For self-builds and extensions in Luton, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Bright summers in the East of England mean solar gain through glass is usually the biggest load to design for.

Planning and permissions
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
The survey
The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote. Surveys in Bedfordshire cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
