Air source heat pumps in Slough: how it works
In England, an air source heat pump on a house can often go in under permitted development rights. The conditions include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³ and compliance with MCS 020(a), and the unit cannot be used solely for cooling or sit within the curtilage of a listed building. We check the rules for your property as part of the survey. We are often asked to deal with an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home, across homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, hot water cylinders and air-to-water heat pumps.
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you’re hoping for.
- On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
What affects the price in Slough
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all make a difference.

What’s near Slough
Around Slough, our work takes us to homes and businesses near Herschel Grammar School, St Michael and All Angels and Westgate School. Nearby too are Herschel Park (1.1 miles south-east), The Godolphin Junior Academy (0.6 miles north) and The Moon and Spoon pub (0.6 miles south-east).

Green spaces nearby include Taplow Lake and Burnham Beeches.
Where we fit heat pumps in Slough
From Cippenham, Chalvey and Britwell outwards, every heat pump we fit in Slough starts with a heat loss calculation. We’re MCS certified and apply for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for you.
We’re based in East Grinstead and work across London and the South East, Slough included. Each job starts with a survey and a fixed-price quote.
Slough: If your home is one of the older properties near St Michael and All Angels, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Homeowners near Slough station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that.
Why it fails
For homes with no mains gas, heated by oil or LPG, a heat pump is well worth considering. 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 where the home is eligible.
Look out for these signs:
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Checking whether planning permission is needed
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Checking emitters for a heat pump
How we price air source heat pumps
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- The condition of any existing system
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- The brand, model and parts involved
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Wide pictures of the room or the existing unit
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because every property is different. After a look at the job, by pictures or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, call us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Rented and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Slough. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building to keep disruption down.
From a single flat to a whole estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.
Different systems, different jobs
Outdoor unit position and planning
Permitted development conditions in England include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), and use for more than cooling alone. Listed building curtilages are excluded.
Hot water cylinders
An older cylinder may not suit a heat pump and we tell you if it needs replacing.
Slough questions
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Expect £8,000–£16,000 for an air-to-water system, with 0% VAT on homes, before the grant is taken off. Where you land depends on the size of heat pump, any radiators that need changing and the hot water cylinder. Air-to-air is priced after a survey.
Which brands do you work with?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some brands make regular servicing a condition, so keep your service records.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
Some radiators may be fine as they are, and some may need to be larger. At the lower temperatures a heat pump uses, radiators need more surface so we check every radiator against the room’s heat loss.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim and we will tell you what your brand asks for.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that cannot wait. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
