Heat load surveys and system design in Bathgate
Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows. Every Bathgate quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area.
No two rooms in Bathgate gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Bathgate is about 18 miles from Edinburgh and falls within our Edinburgh and the Lothians coverage. Coverage includes EH48.

The survey
On a survey in Bathgate 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. 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.
