Heat load surveys and system design in Rugeley

Every Rugeley quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Rugeley is about 20 miles from Stoke-on-Trent and falls within our Staffordshire coverage. Coverage includes WS15.

Planning and permissions
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
The survey
A survey in Rugeley 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 Rugeley 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.
