How it works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Photos of the room and the outside wall help us plan a job near Bagshot.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you are hoping for.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- 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.
- The system is commissioned and registered under MCS, and we show you how to use it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
Getting a price
Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.
Advice
How we handle air source heat pumps in Bagshot
Installing an air source heat pump in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, then 5%. That follows HMRC Notice 708/6, and it doesn’t apply to businesses, and for air-to-air systems we confirm the VAT on your quote. This is general information, not tax advice. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, underfloor heating and radiator systems, and the jobs we see most are an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump.
For a house near Bagshot, space outside is rarely the problem, so the main questions are heat loss, radiators and the electrics.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Different systems, different jobs
Hot water cylinders
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. The survey looks at where it can go, especially if you have a combi boiler.
Heat loss surveys
Getting the survey right avoids undersized or oversized systems and that matters for comfort and running.

Other services in Bagshot
Owner checks or an engineer?
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
FAQs for Bagshot
Do you cover smaller places like Bagshot?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Bagshot?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Bagshot is a short walk from the Bagshot Village Conservation Area. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with Surrey Heath council, which is usually the planning authority for Bagshot first.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
How soon will you get back to me?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
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 can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Is there a Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for air-to-air?
The air-to-air grant is £2,500, and only some homes qualify. It must replace fossil-fuel heating and meet the full heating demand of a home with an MCS certified installer.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Keep radiators clear
- Keep the MCS certificate with the manufacturer’s paperwork
- Read the manufacturer’s warranty terms for your brand
We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Heat pumps tend to work best running steadily rather than in short bursts so we set the controls up with you.
Book a service every year. Check the manufacturer’s terms, as they may include servicing conditions.
