Air source heat pumps in Boyn Hill
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation and the installer makes the application. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. If you’re dealing with moving away from fossil-fuel heating and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant, we can sort it out.
Older homes around Boyn Hill can be draughty or have solid walls, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulating first makes more sense.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

The process
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Tell us about any gates or steps at your property near Boyn Hill when you book.
- 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.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Before we arrive
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Heat pumps in Boyn Hill: local notes
VOA council tax data date about 52% of homes in and around Boyn Hill to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and Census 2021 figures found about 63% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
With Dorney Court about 3.1 miles east, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump. Live in one of the older houses around All Saints' Church? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

When it’s something else
Air source heat pumps cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Disconnecting or servicing a gas boiler
- Draught-proofing and insulation upgrades
- Planning decisions, which rest with the council

Common questions in Boyn Hill
Is a heat pump in Boyn Hill permitted development?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The centre of Boyn Hill is in a conservation area. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot face a road. Where necessary, we check with Windsor and Maidenhead council, which is usually the planning authority for Boyn Hill.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Boyn Hill?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Boyn Hill is in England, where it applies. Air-to-water and ground source systems attract £7,500. Air-to-air gets £2,500, but only where it takes over from fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s heating demand. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water suits homes with radiators and a cylinder; air-to-air suits rooms that need heating and cooling. The survey helps decide. We install both types.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Every visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Do you cover Boyn Hill?
Yes. We cover Boyn Hill and across Windsor and Maidenhead, within the London and South East area we cover. To book, phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your photos and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
After we have gone
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Keep the MCS certificate with the manufacturer’s paperwork
- Seal draughts where you can
Handover includes the controls and how to get the best from a heat pump. Heat pumps tend to work best running steadily rather than in short bursts, and we’ll explain the settings for your home.
Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and stored items. Airflow is what it runs on so keep it unobstructed.
