Heat load surveys and system design across Derbyshire
Every Derby quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. No two rooms in Derby gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. In the East Midlands, one system that cools in summer and heats efficiently in winter makes good use of the investment.
Prices in Derbyshire
In the East Midlands, our guide range for heat load surveys and system design is £380–£1,195 for a standalone design pack, including VAT. Labour rates in the East Midlands keep this slightly under the national middle. The design pack price depends mainly on the number of rooms and whether full drawings and equipment schedules are needed. On our East Midlands figures, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) is about £380–£745.

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. The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote.
