Heat load surveys and system design in Horsham
Summers in the South East are among the warmest in the country, so cooling often comes first, with efficient winter heating as a bonus. For self-builds and extensions in Horsham, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.
Every Horsham quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Horsham sits around 7 miles from Crawley, inside our West Sussex area. That includes the RH12 postcode district.

Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
On a survey in Horsham 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. We book surveys in Horsham at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
