Before you book: heat loss surveys in Newport (Gwent)
Every property in Newport (Gwent) 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.
A surveyor visits your Newport (Gwent) home to measure each room, window and wall before any heat pump is sized. Houses in Newport (Gwent) 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.
- Anyone getting a heat pump quote, as the first step
- Self-builders and architects who need emitter and system sizes early
- Homeowners planning insulation or building work who want to know the effect on heat demand
What's included
- Room-by-room heat loss calculation using the MCS method
- Radiator schedule with any upgrades needed for each room
- Electrical supply and network operator notes
- Outdoor unit siting options and noise check
- Recommended heat pump size and design flow temperature
For Newport (Gwent) homes with extensions or loft conversions, each part of the house is assessed on its own construction.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in Wales
In Wales the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air source heat pump (£9,000 if it replaces oil or LPG, from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027; £2,500 for air-to-air). The MCS-certified installer named in your quote applies to Ofgem for you, and the grant comes off your Newport (Gwent) quote.
There is no VAT on installing a heat pump anywhere in the UK, Wales included, until 31 March 2027. Planning rules for heat pumps in Wales are set by the Welsh Government and differ from England's, so the surveyor checks the unit position against them.

The report states the assumptions used wherever construction could not be confirmed.

A typical survey takes 1–3 hours on site, depending on the size and complexity of the home. Larger or older houses with mixed construction, extensions or many rooms take longer. The calculations and design are completed afterwards, and the results are included in your quote or stand-alone report.
