Heat load surveys and system design in Stromness
Here, heat pumps are sized for low winter temperatures and exposed sites. No two rooms in Stromness gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing.
Every Stromness quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Stromness sits within our Orkney, Shetland and the Western Isles area. Coverage includes KW16.
Prices in Stromness
Heat load surveys and system design in Stromness typically come in at £350–£1,095 for a standalone design pack including VAT, based on Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland rates. The design pack price depends mainly on the number of rooms and whether full drawings and equipment schedules are needed. On our Highlands, Islands and North East Scotland figures, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) is about £350–£695. These figures exclude travel to Stromness. Any travel, ferry or accommodation cost is quoted separately, in writing, before anything is booked.

Planning and permissions

The survey
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. Surveys in Stromness 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.
