Heat load surveys and system design in Porthcawl
No two rooms in Porthcawl gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Humid summer spells in South Wales make dehumidifying and cooling equally welcome.
Every Porthcawl quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. We cover Porthcawl as part of Mid Glamorgan, roughly 6 miles from Bridgend. We cover CF36 and the streets around them.

Planning and permissions
Wales removed its old 3 m boundary rule on 1 June 2026, so most houses in Porthcawl can now have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the MCS 020a noise condition. Listed buildings still need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions.
The survey
We book surveys in Porthcawl at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. A survey in Porthcawl 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.
