Heat load surveys and system design in Herne Bay
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 Herne Bay gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing.
For self-builds and extensions in Herne Bay, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. We cover Herne Bay as part of Kent, roughly 27 miles from Maidstone. Homes in CT6 are all within our coverage.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Herne Bay, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
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. 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.
