How we handle air source heat pumps in Ardleigh Green
Until 31 March 2027, a heat pump installed in residential accommodation carries 0% VAT, with 5% from 1 April 2027. This is HMRC’s energy-saving materials relief, which applies to homes rather than businesses. For air-to-air systems, we confirm the VAT on your quote. Please treat this as general information rather than tax advice. The work covers hot water cylinders, air-to-water heat pumps and underfloor heating, and common reasons people get in touch are deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home and radiators that may be too small for a heat pump.
Terraced houses in a London area like Ardleigh Green can suit a heat pump well, provided the outdoor unit can sit somewhere that passes the MCS noise check.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Common questions in Ardleigh Green
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Ardleigh Green?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Ardleigh Green is in England, where it applies. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and is not an add-on to a boiler. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Is Ardleigh Green in your area for air source heat pumps?
Yes. Ardleigh Green is one of the places we cover. Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few details.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Ardleigh Green and across Greater London. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
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.
When will I hear back?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.

Homes in Ardleigh Green and heat pumps
VOA council tax data show about 46% of homes across Ardleigh Green and its surrounding area date from 1919 to 1939. Whether the walls and loft have been insulated makes a real difference to the heat pump size for homes of that period. London homes can be short of space for an outdoor unit and cylinder, which affects the choice of heat pump.
If your home is near Gidea Park station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.

Related advice
After we’ve gone
Looking after it is simple, and it helps at the next service:
- Read the manufacturer’s warranty terms for your brand
- Diary the next service
- Let the heat pump run steadily, as set up at handover
After commissioning, the installation is registered under MCS and you receive the certificate. Keep it with the manufacturer’s paperwork for future reference.
Book a service every year. Your manufacturer’s warranty terms may say something about servicing.
Do you need air source heat pumps in Ardleigh Green?
Homes off the gas grid, heated by oil or LPG, are often good candidates to look at. Until March 2027, an extra £1,500 is available for air source and ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas, subject to the scheme rules.
What we’re most often called about:
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating
- A boiler that’s getting old
Historic houses such as Hare Hall, about 0.3 miles north-west, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.
What your quote should include
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
- What records you get at the end
What the work involves, system by system
Outdoor unit position and planning
Where the outdoor unit goes depends on airflow, access and the route into the house. Noise is part of the MCS 020(a) check, so we consider nearby homes too.
Air-to-air heat pumps
Air-to-air heat pumps are now covered by permitted development rules in England, subject to conditions. A unit used solely for cooling isn’t covered, so check with the council.
What a customer said
“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.”
