Brighton Hill questions
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Brighton Hill?
Brighton Hill is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Can you do air source heat pumps in Brighton Hill?
Yes. Brighton Hill is one of the places we cover. To start, phone 07833 053749 with a few photos.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. Your price depends on the survey, the emitters and the hot water and the quote is fixed.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?
Often not in England, as many heat pumps on houses are permitted development, if the conditions are met. These include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), not being used solely for cooling and not being within the curtilage of a listed building.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
About our air source heat pumps in Brighton Hill
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside with electricity running the compressor and fans. The technology is close to air conditioning, which is why we install both, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. If the problem is no space for a hot water cylinder and finding a place for the outdoor unit, we can help.
For a house near Brighton Hill, space outside is rarely the problem, so the main questions are heat loss, radiators and the electrics.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. A few tips:
- Clear leaves and debris from the outdoor unit
- Keep to regular servicing
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
After commissioning, the installation is registered under MCS and you receive the certificate. File it with the warranty documents for future reference.
Don’t cover radiators with furniture or heavy curtains so the heat can get into the room.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
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 on a regular cycle.

Heat pumps in Brighton Hill: local notes
At about 47 miles from central London, Brighton Hill sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East. About 37% of households live in terraced houses, according to the last census (2021). Terraced houses share walls with neighbours, which helps, but the outdoor unit position needs care with noise next door.
Older homes near The Church Of Christ The King may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed. With The Vyne about 4 miles north, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.

How the job changes from property to property
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
There’s one grant per property, and you cannot get a grant to replace a low-carbon system. Hybrids are excluded.
Radiators and underfloor heating
At lower water temperatures, radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.
