There’s a few steps and a little jargon, but together we’ll get you the information you need to feel confident in your application.  \nTo kick things off, here’s what you’ll need to get started:  \nDrawings-with each planning application, drawings will be needed to demonstrate to the council the details of your heat pump location. These will need to be drawn to scale, with clear measurements. We have a number of third parties we can recommend to take care of this.  \nTechnical Specifications-your council likely won’t know an awful lot about your chosen heat pump, so they’ll require some information about it. We have the relevant documentation foryour heat pump and your IS coordinator will send them to you as part of their introduction. It will include the dimensions of the unit, as well as the air clearance needed to perform as efficiently as possible.  \nNeighbour Consent-one of the largest considerations your council will make when deciding on the outcome of your application is the amenity of the houses surrounding the site. Whilst it’ll take multiple objections to your planning application to make a recommendation for refusal, a letter of support or a demonstration that you’ve discussed the proposed installation will go a long way with informing the council’s decision.  \nMCS 020 Noise Assessment-this will be required if the results of the Noise Assessment carried out during your survey is over the levels of permitted development of 42dB. Your install support coordinator will have this document.  \nAir Source Heat Pump Location Photo-this will be taken during your survey and will be provided by your install support coordinator.  \nIf you’ve any questions about the above or on your application, we’ll be here to support you through.  \nCOMPLETING YOUR PLANNING PERMISSION APPLICATION  \nPART 1  \nTHE PLANNING PORTAL  \nStarting the application  \nTo begin an application you must first create an account on the planning portal website. Head to [https://www.planningportal.co.uk/app/applications](https://www.planningportal.co.uk/app/applications and register for an)[ and register for an](https://www.planningportal.co.uk/app/applications and register for an)[ ](https://www.planningportal.co.uk/app/applications and register for an)[account](account). Once completed, you will also be able to track the progress of your application from this page.  \nFrom here you should be able to start a new application at the top right of the page.  \nGive your application a name that clearly outlines the proposal to you. Follow through to the next step and enter your postcode to choose your address from the drop down list.  \nNext up, your application type. You will be making a minor application within your boundary. Select Householder planning permission. It falls within the Standard application category.  \nDrawing your Site Boundary  \nYou can draw your Site Boundary on the planning portal website. Click Draw site boundary and follow through the steps for a quick how-to. You need to ensure two roads (with names) are visible-you’re able to edit this drawing later if it isn’t quite right.  \nThe drawing tool will assume parts of your boundary (house, rear garden, front garden) and outline them in red when hovered over-simply click the area outlined in red to include it as part of your Site Boundary.  \n\u003C select the chosen area  \nconfirm the boundary >  \nOnce this has been completed, you will be shown to a page to check all details so far are correct. Confirm they are indeed correct and begin making your application!  \nOn the next page you will be able to add your plans, documents and complete the application questions. The supporting documents section will advise of any plans or documents considered essential to your application.  \nYou are able to save your progress here and continue later if you need ","cbCail5RfKr9lKKQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCail5RfKr9lKKQ","pdf",3015632,13,"English","# Applying for planning permission\n## What you need to get started\n## Completing your planning permission application - Part 1: The planning portal\n## Completing your planning permission application - Part 2: The drawings","[{\"question\":\"What are the key documents and information needed to start a planning permission application for an air source heat pump?\",\"answer\":\"The guide lists scaled drawings to show the heat pump location, technical specifications for the unit, evidence of neighbour consent or discussion, and a photo of the air source heat pump location from the survey.
