Heat load surveys and system design in Lerwick
No two rooms in Lerwick gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. In the Highlands, Islands and the North East of Scotland, systems are sized for cold winter days first.
For self-builds and extensions in Lerwick, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Lerwick sits within our Orkney, Shetland and the Western Isles area. That includes the ZE1 postcode district.

Planning and permissions
Scotland has its own permitted development rules for heat pumps and outdoor units, with stricter treatment of listed buildings and conservation areas. We check the current position for your property with you and, if needed, with the council.
The survey
Surveys in Lerwick are arranged around travel. We confirm the date and any travel, ferry or accommodation cost in writing before you commit, then the survey covers rooms, pipe routes, electrics and noise as normal. Where travel is involved, we agree the survey arrangements and any travel cost up front. On the day, the engineer measures the rooms, checks the electrics and agrees the outdoor unit position with you.
