Heat pump installation in Broadfields Estate, Greater London
Looking for air source heat pumps in Broadfields Estate? We look at the job first, give you a fixed-price quote and do the work at a time that suits you, then sign it off with written records.
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Working out where a cylinder could go
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
What happens on the day
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. A few photos of the room, the outside wall and the fuse board help us plan a job in Broadfields Estate.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you are hoping for.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- The price comes back fixed and in writing, with the grant and VAT shown line by line.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- The system is commissioned and registered under MCS, and we show you how to use it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from photos and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
Advice
About our air source heat pumps in Broadfields Estate
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £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. Common call-outs are for questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, on radiator systems, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.
For flats in Broadfields Estate, the lease, the freeholder and the rules for flats all come into it. Permitted development limits are different for flats, so we check the position before we design.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

What owners can safely do
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Broadfields Estate: your questions answered
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Broadfields Estate?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Broadfields Estate, if they qualify. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Broadfields Estate?
Normally, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
That depends on the brand. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim and we’ll tell you what your brand asks for.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Broadfields Estate and across Greater London. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
How soon will you get back to me?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Homes in Broadfields Estate and heat pumps
Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 52% of homes across Broadfields Estate and its surrounding area date from 1919 to 1939. Homes of that age often have cavity walls that may or may not be insulated, which the survey checks. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.
Period properties close to St Andrew can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

Signs you need air source heat pumps in Broadfields Estate
Homes with electric heating sometimes look at heat pumps as an alternative. The survey tells you whether it’s practical and what’s involved along with whether any grant could apply.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- Deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump
With Headstone Manor about 4.1 miles south-west, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.
Questions to ask before you book
- What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
From one of our customers
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
