Heat load surveys and system design in Richmond
Every Richmond quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Many London homes are flats or tall terraces, where heat rises to the top floor and the bedrooms bear the brunt of a hot spell.
No two rooms in Richmond gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Richmond is about 8 miles from central London and falls within our London coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include TW9.
Prices in Richmond
For Richmond, expect roughly £495 to £1,645 for a standalone design pack, VAT included, adjusted for typical London rates. Prices here sit above the national middle, reflecting London labour rates and parking and access costs. Larger homes, more zones and full drawing sets for a builder are what move a design pack towards the upper figure. Typical Design pack work (drawings and schedules for one home) lands around £495–£1,045 in this area.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Richmond, 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
