Heat loss survey for Fishguard homes
Every property in Fishguard is different, so the design starts from measurements rather than a rule of thumb. That keeps the system the right size and the running costs predictable.
The survey in Fishguard includes a check of where the outdoor unit could sit and how its sound would reach neighbours. Houses in Fishguard built in different eras can need very different heat pump sizes, which is why each is calculated room by room.
Every heat pump we quote starts with a room-by-room heat loss survey, free with installation enquiries and also available as a stand-alone report.
- Homes with an existing heat pump that seems undersized or expensive to run
- Anyone getting a heat pump quote, as the first step
- Self-builders and architects who need emitter and system sizes early
What's included
- Written results in your quote, or a stand-alone report if you order one
- Room-by-room heat loss calculation using the MCS method
- Radiator schedule with any upgrades needed for each room
- Recommended heat pump size and design flow temperature
- Electrical supply and network operator notes
Homeowners in Fishguard thinking about insulation work can use the survey to see how it would change their heat pump size.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales
Homes in Fishguard can use the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which applies in Wales as well as England: £7,500 towards an air source heat pump, or £9,000 when it replaces oil or LPG heating for installations from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies and deducts the grant.
Installing heat pumps is zero-rated for VAT across the UK until 31 March 2027. Wales has its own permitted development rules for air source heat pumps, so we check what applies to your property, including listed building and conservation-area constraints, at the survey.

Heat loss surveys in Fishguard: questions
Can you service a heat pump in Fishguard that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Fishguard, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you book.
Where would the outdoor unit go on a Fishguard house?
Usually at the side or rear, on a level base with space around it for airflow and servicing, away from bedroom windows where possible. The surveyor checks positions at your Fishguard home.
How long does installation take in Fishguard?
Most installations take 2–4 days on site. Jobs with several radiator changes or new pipework take longer, and your quote for a Fishguard home states the expected time.
Is the heat loss survey free?
Yes, for installation enquiries the home survey and heat loss calculation are free, and the results form the basis of your written quote. If you only want the calculation and report, for example for building plans or comparing quotes, a stand-alone heat loss survey has a guide price of £150–£400, including VAT. We confirm which applies when you book.
Can I use the heat loss report to get other quotes?
Yes. A stand-alone heat loss report is yours to use, including sharing it with other installers so their quotes are based on the same figures. Comparing quotes like for like makes it easier to see differences in equipment, radiator upgrades and workmanship terms. The report states the assumptions used wherever construction could not be confirmed.
