Getting Your Home Surveyed Right: The Hook You Need
A professional heat pump survey is more than a checklist of measurements. It lays the groundwork for efficient, low-carbon heating that lasts decades. Skip the guesswork, and you skip savings. That’s why getting it right on day one matters.
Megawave’s team doesn’t just show up with a tape measure. Our experts deliver tailored system designs, factor in government grants, and use zero-carbon refrigerants like R290 for greener results. Ready to see how it works? Book a professional heat pump survey with Megawave: Eco-Friendly Heating
In this guide, we’ll walk you through why a robust survey is non-negotiable, how Megawave compares to other providers, and how you can secure the perfect installation quote.
Why a Professional Heat Pump Survey Matters
Installing an air source heat pump without a thorough survey is like building a house on quicksand. You might get lucky, but the long-term risks—inefficiency, breakdowns, disappointed tenants—can quickly outweigh initial savings. A proper professional heat pump survey:
- Assesses heat loss accurately with thermal imaging and room-by-room data
- Captures every radiator size, wall thickness, ceiling height and window detail
- Identifies optimal equipment siting to avoid noise or visual impact
- Provides draft EPCs showing current efficiency and potential gains
Without this depth, installers often rely on rough estimates. That means missed optimisation opportunities and extra costs down the line. Megawave’s surveys deliver precise heat loss calculations and system designs within 48 hours. Beyond speed, you get:
- Government grant advice to reduce upfront costs
- Zero-carbon R290 refrigerant options for future-proof performance
- Seamless integration with smart controls

What a Best-In-Class Survey Covers
To appreciate the difference, let’s break down a top-tier survey:
1. Full Building Measurement
- External and internal wall lengths
- Ceiling heights and floor areas
- Radiator and window dimensions
2. Thermal Imaging and Heat Loss Analysis
- Infra-red scans to spot leaks
- Calculated heat loss per room
- Recommendations for insulation upgrades
3. Draft EPC Reports
- Baseline energy rating
- Impact of proposed upgrades
- Grant eligibility details
4. System Design Proposal
- Optimal heat pump sizing
- Radiator or underfloor heating adjustments
- R290 refrigerant benefits explained
This level of detail ensures your installation flows smoothly, equipment orders match site requirements, and you avoid retrofit surprises. After this survey, you’ll have a turnkey plan to share with any installer—no last-minute tweaks.
Comparing Megawave vs Apex Renewable Energy Surveys
Apex Renewable Energy Surveys is known for fast turnaround and extensive UK coverage. They handle thousands of air and ground source surveys, offer MCS-certified designs, and ship comprehensive heat loss packs within 48 hours. Impressive. But there are a few gaps:
- Limited follow-through. Apex focuses on surveying and design, not installation. You still juggle multiple contractors.
- Standard refrigerant choices. R410A is common, but it carries a higher global warming potential than R290.
- Fewer finance options. Their service is fixed or variable pricing per survey, without flexible payment plans.
- No bundled grants advice. You get the data—but you must navigate grant applications alone.
Megawave solves these issues by being a one-stop shop:
- We survey and install, so you deal with a single point of contact.
- We specialise in zero-carbon R290 refrigerant to slash CO₂ impact.
- Government grants are part of our package—no extra paperwork on your desk.
- Flexible finance options spread costs, making green tech accessible.
In short, while Apex nails the survey basics, Megawave elevates the entire journey from initial assessment through to ongoing maintenance and support.
