Air source heat pumps in Borden

We install air source heat pumps in Borden and across Hampshire, and we are MCS certified. There are two kinds: air-to-water, which heats radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water, and air-to-air, which warms rooms through indoor units and can also cool. We’ll explain which type fits your home and why. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, radiator systems and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and people most often call us about moving away from fossil-fuel heating and questions about where the outdoor unit can go.

In a place like Borden, some homes are listed, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, so we check consent first.

Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

Keeping the system healthy

So the system stays in good health:

  • Seal draughts where you can
  • Diary the next service
  • Know the servicing conditions in your warranty

Equipment warranties come from the manufacturer. We explain the terms for your brand, including any servicing conditions.

Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and stored items. It needs good airflow to collect heat from outside so keep it unobstructed.

How it works

The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, 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. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Borden.

  1. First we talk through the property and the current system.
  2. Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
  3. The design covers the heat pump, emitters, hot water and outdoor unit.
  4. You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
  5. Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
  • Let us know where we can park and unload
  • Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand

Borden: your questions answered

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Borden?

Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Borden, if they qualify. 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 is not an add-on to a boiler. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.

Do you cover smaller places like Borden?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.

How does the warranty work?

Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.

Will you work on another installer’s system?

Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.

Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?

The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

How soon will you get back to me?

You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

What affects the cost of air source heat pumps

A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:

  • The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
  • Whether the existing supply is suitable
  • Whether we need access equipment for high-level work

Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

Helping us quote

You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:

  • The make and model of the system, from the label
  • The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
  • The address and the type of property

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.

Air source heat pumps around Borden

VOA council tax data put about 41% of homes across Borden and its surrounding area before 1919, and about 82% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. In older homes, the heat loss calculation is especially important, as solid walls and draughts change the size of heat pump needed. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these. Historic England lists about 4 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Borden, including Borden Wood House (grade II). For a heat pump, permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with Chichester council, normally the planning authority here where necessary.

Period properties close to Church of St Peter can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. Cowdray House, roughly 4.4 miles south-east, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development does not cover listed buildings.
