What changes is the size, where the outdoor unit can go, how the pipes and the water get out, and what permission is needed. Each page covers those four things for that building, with worked sizes and prices from our own 2026 quotations. If your building is not listed, the survey is the same: we measure, calculate the heat load and send a written price. ## Rooms in your home The room decides the size and the kind of indoor unit.
