Heat load surveys and system design in Hemel Hempstead

No two rooms in Hemel Hempstead gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Bright summers in the East of England mean solar gain through glass is usually the biggest load to design for.

Every Hemel Hempstead quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Hemel Hempstead sits around 7 miles from Watford, inside our Hertfordshire area. We cover HP3 and the streets around them.

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. A survey in Hemel Hempstead usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes.
