Why it was refused

  1. The applicant has failed to provide sufficient information in relation to the proposed noise levels that would be emitted from the proposed air source heat pump. In the circumstances the Local Planning Authority is unable to conclude that the proposed development would not have a significantly adverse impact on the amenities of the occupants of the neighbouring dwelling at 76 Monks Dyke Road. To allow the application in these circumstances would be contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework particularly paragraphs 135 and 198.

From the council's decision notice.
