What a heat pump looks like in Ashford
The 2021 Census found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. On the National Heritage List, around 4 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Ashford; Sandle Manor School (grade II) is one. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?
Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation. Breamore House, roughly 3 miles north, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings.

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Ashford
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. The work covers hot water cylinders, air-to-water heat pumps and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are planning and permitted development questions and questions about where the outdoor unit can go.
In a place like Ashford, some homes are listed, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Heat loss surveys
A heat loss survey measures how much heat each room loses on a cold day. It’s the basis for sizing the heat pump and the radiators.
Air-to-air heat pumps
The £2,500 grant for air-to-air applies only when the system replaces the fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s demand. It must be installed by an MCS certified installer and be in a home.
Ashford: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Ashford?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Ashford?
Ashford is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Will you make a mess?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We work with the leading brands, 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.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
Air-to-water feeds your central heating and hot water, while air-to-air warms and cools rooms directly. Air-to-air doesn’t heat hot water, and we explain which suits your home.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
What accreditations do you have?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We’re also Checkatrade members.
How the visit works
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Ashford so we arrive with what’s needed.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- The survey measures heat loss room by room and looks at radiators, hot water and the best spot for the outdoor unit.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you are eligible for and the VAT explained.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

What affects the quote in Ashford
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but every job is priced on its own. The quote depends on:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. 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 us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The make and model of the system, from the label
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by pictures or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
From one of our customers
“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.”
