Heat load surveys and system design in Dukinfield
Milder summers in the North West mean designing for winter comfort as much as for a heatwave. For self-builds and extensions in Dukinfield, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.
No two rooms in Dukinfield gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Our Greater Manchester coverage takes in Dukinfield, about 6 miles from Manchester. Postcode districts we cover here include SK16.

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.
