Heat load surveys and system design in Dunstable
No two rooms in Dunstable gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Bright summers in the East of England mean solar gain through glass is usually the biggest load to design for.
Every Dunstable quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Our Bedfordshire coverage takes in Dunstable, about 5 miles from Luton. Postcode districts we cover here include LU6.
Prices in Dunstable
In the East of England, our guide range for heat load surveys and system design is £445–£1,395 for a standalone design pack, including VAT. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in the East of England. 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 £445–£895 here.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Dunstable, 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.
The survey
We book surveys in Dunstable at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. A survey in Dunstable usually takes one to two hours.
