Heat load surveys and system design across Hampshire

Every Southampton quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. For self-builds and extensions in Southampton, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first.

Prices in Hampshire

Guide prices around Hampshire run from £495 to £1,495 for a standalone design pack including VAT. Prices here sit above the national middle, reflecting South East England labour rates and parking and access costs. A standalone design pack is priced on the size of the home, the number of rooms and how much drawing work your builder or architect needs. As an example, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) would typically be £495–£945 here.

Planning and permissions

In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.

The survey

Surveys in Hampshire cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare. 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.

FAQ

Heat load surveys and system design in Hampshire

Which towns in Hampshire do you cover?

All of Hampshire, including Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke and Gosport. Each town has its own page below with local details.

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

Our South East England guide range is £495–£1,495 for a standalone design pack, including VAT.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new installations on the mainland. The survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Hampshire?

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.

How long does a survey take?

One to two hours for most homes.

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.
