Heat load surveys and system design across West Glamorgan

Every Swansea quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. For self-builds and extensions in Swansea, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. In South and Mid Wales, efficient heating is often as important as cooling.

FAQ

Heat load surveys and system design in West Glamorgan

How much do heat load surveys and system design cost in West Glamorgan?

Our South and Mid Wales guide range is £365–£1,145 for a standalone design pack, including VAT.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new installations on the mainland. The survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in West Glamorgan?

Since 1 June 2026, most houses in Wales can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020a noise conditions. Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas need more care. We check on survey.

Which towns in West Glamorgan do you cover?

All of West Glamorgan, including Swansea, Neath, Briton Ferry and Gorseinon. Each town has its own page below with local details.

Why can't you just quote from floor area?

Two rooms the same size can need very different units because of glazing, orientation and use. Sizing from floor area alone is the main cause of systems that never feel right.

How long does a survey take?

One to two hours for most homes.
