Heat load surveys and system design across Rutland
Every Oakham quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. For self-builds and extensions in Oakham, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. East Midlands summers bring dry, sunny spells, so glazing and orientation matter most when sizing a unit.

Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
A survey in Rutland 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. On a survey in Rutland 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.
