How the visit works
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. For a place like Alfold, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Getting ready for the visit

- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
How to get a quote
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

Air source heat pumps in Alfold
We install air source heat pumps in Alfold and across Surrey, and we’re MCS certified. Air-to-water systems feed your radiators or underfloor heating and hot water cylinder, while air-to-air systems heat rooms directly through indoor units and can cool them too. We will explain which type fits your home and why. The work covers homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, radiator systems and hot water cylinders, and the jobs we see most are checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and a boiler that’s getting old.
In a place like Alfold, some homes are listed, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Common questions in Alfold
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Alfold?
Alfold is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Is Alfold within the area you cover?
Yes. Alfold is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, the approach is the same: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, on every job. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone, and we are happy to show ours.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so it’s worth checking. Either way, keep a record of every service.
How the job changes from property to property
Hot water cylinders
The cylinder size depends on how much hot water the household uses.
Air-to-water heat pumps
The price for air-to-water is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. A £7,500 grant may be available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme for eligible homes, and we apply for it as the installer.
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after it is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Find out the grant position at the survey
- Keep to regular servicing
- Keep up with insulation and draught-proofing
We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off so we set the controls up with you.
Don’t cover radiators with furniture or heavy curtains, as the system relies on them giving out heat.

Signs you need air source heat pumps in Alfold
When a home is being extended or renovated, it’s a good moment to look at heat pumps. Pipework, radiators and space for a cylinder are easier to plan while work is going on.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Radiators that may be too small for a heat pump
- Deciding on the outdoor unit position
Older homes near Church of St Nicholas may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
What your quote should include
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day

Heat pumps in Alfold: local notes
The Alfold Conservation Area is within about a third of a mile of the centre of Alfold. Historic England lists about 13 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Alfold, including Church of St Nicholas (grade I). So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area? Census 2021 figures found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.
