Heat load surveys and system design in Torquay

In the South West, a system that heats well through damp winters is often as valuable as summer cooling. Every Torquay quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area.

For self-builds and extensions in Torquay, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Torquay is about 28 miles from Plymouth and falls within our Devon coverage. Homes in TQ2 are all within our coverage.

Larger homes, more zones and full drawing sets for a builder are what move a design pack towards the upper figure.

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

We book surveys in Torquay at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. 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.
