About our air source heat pumps in Appleshaw
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales, and as the installer we apply for it on your behalf. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. If the problem is questions about where the outdoor unit can go and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant, we can help.
Homes around Appleshaw usually have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Homes in Appleshaw and heat pumps
VOA council tax data show about 43% of homes in Appleshaw and the neighbourhoods around it were built in 2000 or later, and about 60% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these. The Appleshaw Conservation Area is within about a third of a mile of the centre of Appleshaw. Hill House, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 30 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Appleshaw’s centre. Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with the planning team at Test Valley council, which normally handles Appleshaw before the heat pump design is finished.
Period properties close to Church of St Peter in the Wood can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

Let and managed properties
Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
How the visit works
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system, and we tidy up before we leave. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Appleshaw.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Before we arrive
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.

Why deal with it now?
The two types suit different homes and needs. Air-to-water heats radiators and hot water, and can attract a £7,500 grant where eligible; air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and only qualifies for £2,500 under strict conditions, and we explain which fits your home. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you are not sure what’s needed, call 07833 053749 or send an email for straight advice and a fixed price.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Appleshaw
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Appleshaw?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Appleshaw, if they qualify. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Do you cover smaller places like Appleshaw?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
What does an air-to-water heat pump cost?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. Your price depends on the survey, the emitters and the hot water and the quote is fixed.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so it’s worth checking. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings are excluded, and listed building consent is separate, so we check for your property.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
It takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. The cylinder, the radiators and the pipework make the biggest difference and the timing is set out with your quote.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. 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.

What else we do in Appleshaw
What we are called out for in Appleshaw
A common reason is wanting to stop burning gas, oil or LPG. A heat pump runs on electricity and takes heat from the outside air, which is why it fits that aim.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Moving away from fossil-fuel heating
- Planning and permitted development questions
A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.
Before you book anyone
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
From one of our customers
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
