Heat load surveys and system design in Wellingborough

Every Wellingborough quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. East Midlands summers bring dry, sunny spells, so glazing and orientation matter most when sizing a unit.

No two rooms in Wellingborough gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Our Northamptonshire coverage takes in Wellingborough, about 9 miles from Northampton. Homes in NN8 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

On a survey in Wellingborough 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. A survey in Wellingborough 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.
