Heat load surveys and system design in Newburn
North East summers are cooler, so heat pump heating is often the main draw, with cooling for warm spells. For self-builds and extensions in Newburn, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.
Every Newburn quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Our Tyne and Wear coverage takes in Newburn, about 5 miles from Newcastle upon Tyne. Coverage includes NE15.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Newburn, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
A survey in Newburn 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. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
