Heat load surveys and system design in Farnborough

The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first. No two rooms in Farnborough gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing.

Every Farnborough quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. We cover Farnborough as part of Hampshire, roughly 39 miles from Southampton. That includes the GU11 postcode district.

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

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