Air source heat pumps across Bray

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Bray

Is Bray within the area you cover?

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.

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Bray?

Bray 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 is not an add-on to a boiler. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.

Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?

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.

Can you set up regular servicing?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

Does servicing affect my warranty?

It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we will explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.

Will my radiators work with 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 and the quote shows what’s needed.

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Bray

An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler, so radiators may need to be larger to give out the same heat. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes and anything that needs changing is in the quote. If you are dealing with checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and a boiler that’s getting old, we can sort it out.

Homes around Bray usually have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.

The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Bray can be planned properly.

  1. It starts with a conversation about the home, the existing heating and your plans.
  2. On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
  3. The price comes back fixed and in writing, with the grant and VAT shown line by line.
  4. Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
  5. Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
  • Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit

Ask for a quote

To get a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and tell us about the property and what you need. Photos help a lot. You’ll hear back from us the same working day.

Rented and managed buildings

Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.

Why deal with it now?

The extra £1,500 for homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas is available until March 2027. For homes that qualify, that is a reason to look into it now. For a village like Bray, booking ahead lets us plan the trip properly.

Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll explain each part.

Looking after your system

Once we have finished, these simple steps help:

  • Check eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme early
  • Keep to regular servicing
  • Use the settings explained at handover

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 will explain the settings for your home.

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

Homes in Bray and heat pumps

The middle of Bray is part of a conservation area. There are 2 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Bray. Jesus Hospital, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 27 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Bray’s centre. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area? Census 2021 figures found about 75% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.

Historic houses such as Dorney Court, about 1.3 miles east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in. Older homes near St Michael's Church may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
