Planning and permissions

For most houses in Cinderford, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.

The survey

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. 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.

FAQ

Common questions in Cinderford

Do you cover all of Cinderford?

Yes, including GL14. We also cover nearby Coleford and Lydney.

How much do heat load surveys and system design cost in Cinderford?

Our guide range in South West England is £395–£1,250 for a standalone design pack, including VAT. The exact price depends on the rooms, the pipe route and access, and we confirm it in writing after a free survey.

How long does the installation take in Cinderford?

Survey 1–2 hours. We confirm the timing, and any days with no cooling or heating, in your written quote.

How soon can you survey in Cinderford?

We offer survey dates when you enquire. Early summer is the busiest time, so spring and autumn are the easiest times to book.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Cinderford?

Most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions. Flats and listed buildings usually need permission or consent. We check on survey.

Why can't you just quote from floor area?

Two rooms the same size can need very different units because of glazing, orientation and use. Sizing from floor area alone is the main cause of systems that never feel right.
