Air Source Heat Pumps in Broadgate
Air source heat pumps in and around Broadgate, from a site survey or diagnosis to sign-off with the price fixed before work begins.
- Checking eligibility for a heat pump grant
- Radiators that may be too small for a heat pump
- Deciding on the outdoor unit position
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help:
- Store the MCS certificate and warranty documents together
- Seal draughts where you can
- Leave indoor units unobstructed
Once commissioned, we register the installation with MCS and give you the certificate. File it with the warranty documents, as you may need it later.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. Airflow is what it runs on so keep it unobstructed.
Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Broadgate
Many air source heat pumps can be installed as permitted development in England, without a planning application. The conditions include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³ and compliance with MCS 020(a), and the unit can’t be used solely for cooling or sit within the curtilage of a listed building. We check the rules for your property as part of the survey. If you are dealing with checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and no space for a hot water cylinder, we can sort it out.
Homes around Broadgate normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

The process
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved, and we clear up before we go. For a place like Broadgate, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- The design covers the heat pump, emitters, hot water and outdoor unit.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in

Air source heat pumps in Broadgate: the local picture
At about 66 miles from central London, Broadgate sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East. VOA council tax data date about 62% of homes in Broadgate and the neighbourhoods around it to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and about 85% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Houses typically have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
South Stoneham House lies about 4.9 miles south. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Broadgate
Is the heat pump grant available in Broadgate?
Broadgate is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Is Broadgate in your area for air source heat pumps?
Yes, Broadgate is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?
In England, many air source heat pumps on houses can be permitted development provided 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.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
That depends on the brand. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Do you work on all makes?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
What affects the cost of air source heat pumps
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- The size of the job
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier for straight advice and a fixed price.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
