Heat load surveys and system design in Clitheroe
North West summers are cooler, so many systems here earn their keep as efficient heaters, with cooling for the warmest weeks. Every Clitheroe quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area.
For self-builds and extensions in Clitheroe, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Clitheroe lies roughly 14 miles from Preston, and we cover it as part of Lancashire. Homes in BB7 are all within our coverage.

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 Clitheroe 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.
