Heat load surveys and system design in Dartford
Summers in the South East are among the warmest in the country, so cooling often comes first, with efficient winter heating as a bonus. No two rooms in Dartford gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing.
Every Dartford quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Dartford is about 18 miles from Maidstone and falls within our Kent coverage. Coverage includes DA1.

Planning and permissions

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. We book surveys in Dartford at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
