Air source heat pumps in Bedgrove and nearby

How we handle air source heat pumps in Bedgrove

Many air source heat pumps can be installed as permitted development in England, without a planning application. Conditions include a maximum outdoor unit size of 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), use for more than cooling alone and a site outside the curtilage of a listed building. We look at the planning position for your home during the survey. The work covers hot water cylinders, radiator systems and air-to-water heat pumps, and common reasons people get in touch are questions about where the outdoor unit can go and deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home.

If your home near Bedgrove has no mains gas, the grant can be bigger. Homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas can get an extra £1,500 on the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027.

We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

What affects the cost of air source heat pumps

Our prices page gives typical ranges, and your quote is built on your job. What we look at:

  • How far the pipework has to run, and where
  • The equipment or parts the job needs
  • Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system

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 unsure, call us on 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.

Before you get in touch

What to send for a quote:

  • A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
  • The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
  • The remote or wall controller showing any error

Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.

Questions from Bedgrove

Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Bedgrove?

Bedgrove is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.

Do you cover smaller places like Bedgrove?

Yes. Bedgrove is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

Do you protect the property while you work?

We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.

Can I do any of the installation myself?

Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.

Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?

The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are and any changes are in the quote.

Will I need planning consent for an air source heat pump?

It depends on the property and where the unit goes. Flats have tighter limits, conservation areas add conditions, and Article 4 directions can remove rights and we look at it during the survey.

How long does a heat pump installation take?

It takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. The cylinder, the radiators and the pipework make the biggest difference and the timing is set out with your quote.

What the work involves, system by system

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme

Only one grant is available per property, and it can’t replace a low-carbon system. Hybrids are excluded.

VAT on heat pumps

HMRC says most air conditioning units are air source heat pumps, but each case depends on the facts and the VAT is confirmed on your quote.

Homes in Bedgrove and heat pumps

The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 65% of homes in the Bedgrove area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and about 77% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder. At about 36 miles from central London, Bedgrove sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East.

Live in one of the older houses around Church of the Holy Spirit? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Records are where property maintenance often slips. Every visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.

For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.

The process

You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. A few photos let us plan a visit to a place like Bedgrove.

  1. It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
  2. Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
  3. From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
  4. You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
  5. We install, commission and register the system under MCS.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking and loading
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
