The process
Every visit follows the same order: agree the plan on site, put the dust sheets down, do the work, test what we have done and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Amport so we arrive with what’s needed.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Amport
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. If the problem is questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life, we can sort it out.
Older and listed homes in villages like Amport need extra care, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so we check consent first.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

What a heat pump looks like in Amport
About 81% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Houses typically have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.

Amport questions
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Amport?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Amport sits inside the Amport and Monxton Conservation Area. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights don’t reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask Test Valley council, which is typically the planning authority for Amport.
Is the heat pump grant available in Amport?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Amport is in England, where it applies. 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.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
As a guide, it takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. We plan the work so you’re without heating for as little time as possible, and we explain it in advance.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
It depends on each radiator and the room it heats. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before you book and we will gladly show you ours.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Air-to-water installations cost £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. Air-to-air prices are set after a survey, and we confirm the VAT on the quote.
Looking after your system
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Check eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme early
- Diary the next service
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
If anything does not seem right after installation, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll talk it through. A yearly service is a good habit.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. It needs good airflow to collect heat from outside, so keep it clear all year.
