Heat load surveys and system design in Selby
For self-builds and extensions in Selby, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Cold Yorkshire winters mean sizing for heating first, then checking the summer cooling load.
No two rooms in Selby gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Selby sits around 12 miles from York, inside our North Yorkshire area. That includes the YO8 postcode district.
Prices in Selby
Guide prices around Selby run from £375 to £1,195 for a standalone design pack including VAT. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Yorkshire and the Humber labour rates. A standalone design pack is priced on the size of the home, the number of rooms and how much drawing work your builder or architect needs. As an example, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) would typically be £375–£745 here.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Selby, 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. We book surveys in Selby at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
