Heat load surveys and system design in Colwyn Bay

Mild North Wales summers mean heat pump heating is usually the headline benefit. Every Colwyn Bay quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area.

Planning and permissions

Wales removed its old 3 m boundary rule on 1 June 2026, so most houses in Colwyn Bay can now have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the MCS 020a noise condition. Listed buildings still need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions.

The survey

On a survey in Colwyn Bay the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows. We book surveys in Colwyn Bay at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.

FAQ

Common questions in Colwyn Bay

How soon can you survey in Colwyn Bay?

We offer survey dates when you enquire. Early summer is the busiest time, so spring and autumn are the easiest times to book.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Colwyn Bay?

Since 1 June 2026, most houses in Wales can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020a noise conditions. Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas need more care. We check on survey.

Is the survey in Colwyn Bay really free?

Yes, for new installations. The survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead.

Can I get a price for Colwyn Bay without a visit?

Yes, our online guide price tool gives a range in about a minute. A fixed price needs a survey, which is free for new installations.

Who carries out the work in Colwyn Bay?

F-gas certified engineers working for Aircon Installers. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which trades as Aircon Installers, and your quote names who will do the work and the F-gas company certificate that covers it.

Why can't you just quote from floor area?

Two rooms the same size can need very different units because of glazing, orientation and use. Sizing from floor area alone is the main cause of systems that never feel right.
