About our air source heat pumps in Adstock
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, hot water cylinders and air-to-water heat pumps, and common reasons people get in touch are no space for a hot water cylinder and questions about listed buildings or conservation areas.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Adstock, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Questions from Adstock
Is the heat pump grant available in Adstock?
Adstock is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Adstock?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The centre of Adstock is in the Adstock Conservation Area. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with Buckinghamshire council, which is usually the planning authority for Adstock first.
How soon will you get back to me?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. That is not optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, it’s £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. Air-to-air prices are set after a survey, and we confirm the VAT on the quote.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Adstock
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- How easy the units are to reach
- How many units are involved
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- Wide pictures of the room or the existing unit
To help us quote: the address and the type of property, a few photos, the make and model of any existing system and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Once you have those, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Different systems, different jobs
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Only one grant is available per property, and it cannot replace a low-carbon system. Hybrids are excluded.
Outdoor unit position and planning
Permitted development conditions in England include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), and use for more than cooling alone. It cannot be within the curtilage of a listed building.

What a heat pump looks like in Adstock
About 68% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Historic houses such as Claydon House, about 3.2 miles south, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in. Period properties close to Church of St Cecilia can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Adstock.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you’re eligible for and the VAT explained.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
Getting a price
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
