Heat load surveys and system design in Newcastle upon Tyne
Cooler North East summers mean cooling is mostly needed in lofts, conservatories and rooms with large windows. Every Newcastle upon Tyne quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area.

Prices in Newcastle upon Tyne
Our North East England guide price for heat load surveys and system design is £365–£1,145 for a standalone design pack, VAT included. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical North East England labour rates. The design pack price depends mainly on the number of rooms and whether full drawings and equipment schedules are needed. As an example, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) would typically be £365–£745 here.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Newcastle upon Tyne, 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 Newcastle upon Tyne 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.
