Why it’s worth doing now in Berry's Green
The two types suit different homes and needs. Air-to-water heats radiators and hot water, and can attract a £7,500 grant where eligible; air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and only qualifies for £2,500 under strict conditions. We explain which makes sense for you. If a lease or managing agent is involved in Berry's Green, start the conversation early.
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Air source heat pumps in Berry's Green, done properly
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside with electricity running the compressor and fans. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way and the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. If the problem is not knowing whether a grant applies and checking emitters for a heat pump, we can sort it out.
Homes in Berry's Green are often flats and terraces, where outside space is limited, and that decides which kind of heat pump works. An air-to-water system needs space outside and usually a hot water cylinder inside, while air-to-air units take less room.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: 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.

The process
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you don’t need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, 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. Parking bays, permits and roof or balcony access are the first things we ask about in Berry's Green.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
How to prepare
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
Getting a price
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: 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.

Questions from Berry's Green
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Berry's Green?
Berry's Green is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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 isn’t an add-on to a boiler. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Do you cover Berry's Green for air source heat pumps?
Yes, Berry's Green is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
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 the survey helps decide.
Will I need planning consent for an air source heat pump?
Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings are excluded, and listed building consent is separate, so we check for your property.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
As a guide, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before we start.
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.
How we price air source heat pumps
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- What electrical work the job needs
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- What kind of system it is
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier for straight advice and a fixed price.
What to send for a quote
Good pictures often save a visit. The most useful are:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Owner checks or an engineer?
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Air source heat pumps around Berry's Green
The last census (2021) found about 75% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder. For a London home, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need careful planning.
If your home is listed, like Down House about 1.3 miles north, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work. Older homes near Church of St Peter and St Paul may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
