Heat load surveys and system design in Redruth
Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling. For self-builds and extensions in Redruth, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.
Every Redruth quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Redruth lies roughly 8 miles from Truro, and we cover it as part of Cornwall. We cover TR15 and the streets around them.

Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. Surveys in Redruth cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
