Heat load surveys and system design in Ulverston
Damp North West weather makes the dehumidifying mode of a modern split system genuinely useful for much of the year. For self-builds and extensions in Ulverston, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.
Every Ulverston quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Our Cumbria coverage takes in Ulverston, about 49 miles from Carlisle. Coverage includes LA12.

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
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. A survey in Ulverston 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.
