Heat load surveys and system design in Bishopsworth
For self-builds and extensions in Bishopsworth, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks.
No two rooms in Bishopsworth gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Bishopsworth sits within our Bristol area. Homes in BS13 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
The survey
A survey in Bishopsworth 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 Bishopsworth cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
