Heat load surveys and system design in Walsall
Away from the coast, West Midlands summers can turn hot quickly, and bedrooms under the roof are the first to suffer. No two rooms in Walsall gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing.
For self-builds and extensions in Walsall, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Our West Midlands coverage takes in Walsall, about 8 miles from Birmingham. That includes the WS1, WS2 and WS5 postcode districts.

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 Walsall 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. We book surveys in Walsall at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
