Heat load surveys and system design in Brecon

For self-builds and extensions in Brecon, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. In South and Mid Wales, efficient heating is often as important as cooling.

No two rooms in Brecon gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. Brecon sits around 40 miles from Newtown, inside our Powys area. Postcode districts we cover here include LD3.

Planning and permissions

Since 1 June 2026, Welsh permitted development rules for outdoor units closely match England's: up to 1.5 m³, two units on a detached home, one on other homes, and MCS 020a noise compliance. Listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions on units facing a road.

The survey

A survey in Brecon 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. We book surveys in Brecon at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.

FAQ

Common questions in Brecon

Is the survey in Brecon really free?

Yes, for new installations. The survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Brecon?

Since 1 June 2026, most houses in Wales can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020a noise conditions. Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas need more care. We check on survey.

Do you cover all of Brecon?

Yes, including LD3. We also cover nearby Tredegar and Merthyr Tydfil.

How much do heat load surveys and system design cost in Brecon?

Our guide range in South and Mid Wales is £365–£1,145 for a standalone design pack, including VAT. The exact price depends on the rooms, the pipe route and access, and we confirm it in writing after a free survey.

Who carries out the work in Brecon?

F-gas certified engineers working for Aircon Installers. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which trades as Aircon Installers, and your quote names who will do the work and the F-gas company certificate that covers it.

Why can't you just quote from floor area?

Two rooms the same size can need very different units because of glazing, orientation and use. Sizing from floor area alone is the main cause of systems that never feel right.
