Air source heat pumps in Amberley and nearby

For landlords and property managers

Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.

Air source heat pumps in Amberley

A heat pump takes heat from the outside air and moves it into your home with electricity running the compressor and fans. The technology is close to air conditioning, which is why we install both and the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. If you are dealing with working out where a cylinder could go and working out whether radiators need upsizing, we can sort it out.

Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Amberley, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.

For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Why it’s worth doing now in Amberley

Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all make a difference.

Air source heat pumps in Amberley: the local picture

Amberley is about 45 miles from central London, well within the area we cover from our base in East Grinstead.

Historic houses such as Parham House, about 1.9 miles east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in. If your home is one of the older properties near The Parish Church of St Michael and All Angels, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

Amberley is about 7 miles north of Littlehampton, in West Sussex. From the centre of Amberley to the outskirts, we cover air source heat pumps, from small jobs to large ones. Amberley is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover for homes and businesses. Worthing, roughly 8 miles off, has its own page on this site.

Not far from Amberley, a recent job of ours was on Lower Street, Pulborough (RH20), about 4 miles north: installing a Daikin multi-split system serving the restaurant dining area, the private function room and the bar area as part of a major refurbishment programme.

Streets in the area include School Road, Turnpike Road and Hog Lane, each of them within reach. Every address in BN18 is covered, from busy streets to back roads. Nearby, we also cover air source heat pumps in Cross Gate (1 mile north-east), Bury (1 mile west), Rackham (1 mile east), Watersfield (2 miles north-west) and West Burton (2 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Horsham (14 miles north-east), Worthing (8 miles south-east), Bognor Regis (10 miles south-west) and Chichester (12 miles south-west).

Honest limits

Not every problem is solved by air source heat pumps, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:

  • Gas boiler work, such as disconnecting the old boiler, which needs a Gas Safe registered engineer
  • Promising eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
  • Tax rulings, which only HMRC can give

If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What the work covers

  • Hot water cylinders
  • Radiator systems
  • Underfloor heating
  • Air-to-air heat pumps
  • Homes heated by oil, LPG or gas
  • Air-to-water heat pumps

The process

Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. For a village like Amberley, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
  2. A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
  3. We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
  4. Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
  5. We install, commission and register the system under MCS.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking and loading
  • Clear access to the fuse board
  • Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in

Amberley questions

Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Amberley?

It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The Amberley Conservation Area is close to the centre of Amberley. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the planning department at Horsham council, usually the authority for Amberley.

Is the heat pump grant available in Amberley?

Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Amberley is in England, where it applies. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.

Will skipping a service affect the warranty?

That depends on the brand. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim and we’ll tell you what your brand asks for.

Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?

No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.

Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?

It varies from room to room. The survey compares each radiator with the room’s needs, so the quote covers any changes.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.

How much time does a heat pump install need?

The work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. We confirm the timing after the survey, and you can phone 07833 053749 or send an email to book it.
