What we do, step by step
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before any work starts, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone. The work 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. Photos of the room and the outside wall help us plan a job near Blackfield.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Advice
About our air source heat pumps in Blackfield
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside, using electricity to drive the process. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. If you’re dealing with no space for a hot water cylinder and plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump, we can help.
If your home near Blackfield has no mains gas, the grant can be bigger. Until March 2027, homes on oil or LPG without mains gas can get an extra £1,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Blackfield
Will you come out to Blackfield?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is the heat pump grant available in Blackfield?
Blackfield 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. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
That depends on the room’s heat loss and the radiator’s size. The survey compares each radiator with the room’s needs, so the quote covers any changes.
Do you work on all makes?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before we start, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.

Signs you need air source heat pumps in Blackfield
For homes with no mains gas, heated by oil or LPG, a heat pump is well worth considering. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme includes an extra £1,500, until March 2027, for air source or ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas where the home is eligible.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
Beaulieu Palace House lies about 3.6 miles west. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.
Before booking anyone
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it

Heat loss surveys
The survey works out the heat needed room by room. Everything else is sized from it.
Radiators and underfloor heating
Underfloor heating works well with heat pumps because it uses lower temperatures and we look at it during the survey.

Blackfield lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Coastal sites are worth mentioning at the survey, as salt air affects the outdoor unit and its fixings. About 78% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Live in one of the older houses around St Francis? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is straightforward, and it helps at the next service:
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
- Do not block radiators or indoor units with furniture
- Let the heat pump run steadily, as set up at handover
Handover includes the controls and how to get the best from a heat pump. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off so we set the controls up with you.
Have the system serviced regularly. Your manufacturer’s warranty terms may say something about servicing.
