Local considerations in Gullane
- A lot of EH31 properties sit empty Monday to Friday, so frost protection settings, leak detection and remote thermostats matter more than they do in everyday housing.
- Inter-war villas around Hill Road tend to have generous airing-cupboard cylinders that owners often want to keep — system boilers, not combis, are usually the right answer.
- Mains pressure on the elevated streets toward Gullane Hill can drop unexpectedly — we routinely fit pressure-boosting sets when converting to a combi.
- Salt-laden onshore winds off the Forth take a real toll on outdoor heat-pump units — siting them away from the prevailing south-westerly is part of the design, not an afterthought.
