A site survey needs to be completed by a suitably qualified engineer <a title=\"HETAS website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hetas.co.uk\/\">(HETAS registered installer)<\/a> before installing an appliance to your home. You can arrange this by visiting your <a title=\"Find a retailer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stovax.com\/information\/find-a-retailer\/\">Stovax or Gazco retailer<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>During a typical site survey, your Stovax or Gazco retailer will take into consideration the appropriate heat output for the room, the relevant location within the house, and the most suitable flue system for your appliance.<\/p>\n<p>If you are currently replacing an existing appliance, the site survey will recognise the requirements of the Building Regulations or recommend any changes that have to be made to comply. If the installation is new, the site survey will identify the requirements for the hearth, flue system, ventilation and clearances to any combustible materials to maintain safe use.<\/p>\n<p>Another important reason to consider a site survey is that it will recognise the most suitable appliance for the location of your home. Some areas of the country are designated as <a title=\"Smoke Control Areas\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stovax.com\/smoke-control-areas\/\">Smoke Control Areas<\/a>. Your Stovax retailer will be able to identify this during the site survey and will ensure that they provide you with the appropriate appliance for these areas. Find out more about <a title=\"Smoke Control Areas\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stovax.com\/smoke-control-areas\/\">Smoke Control Areas<\/a> and the suitable appliances for these areas.<\/p>\n<p>A site survey will also allow your Stovax or Gazco retailer to provide you with a comprehensive quotation of the cost of supplying and fitting your appliance, consequently avoiding any unexpected expense.<\/p>\n<p>To book your site survey, why not visit your local <a title=\"Find a retailer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stovax.com\/information\/find-a-retailer\/\">Stovax or Gazco retailer<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When installing a new heating appliance, or updating a old one, a site survey will help you to find the best type of appliance, flue system and location of heating appliance for your home, as well as providing you with an accurate quotation of cost.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":19216,"parent":0,"menu_order":175,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-15942","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"dummy_url":false,"extra_featured_image_pages":19219,"hide_sidebar_menu":false,"hide_sidebar_related":false,"hide_tweets":false,"video_code":"","page-title":"","cat-page-sub-title":"","external_page":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Importance of a site survey - Stovax &amp;
