Heat load surveys and system design in Surbiton
London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset. Every Surbiton quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area.
For self-builds and extensions in Surbiton, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. We cover Surbiton as part of London, roughly 11 miles from central London. Postcode districts we cover here include KT5 and KT6.

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
We book surveys in Surbiton at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. On a survey in Surbiton the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
