About our air source heat pumps in Brook
We begin with a room-by-room heat loss survey. It shows how much heat each room needs on a cold day so the system is sized to match. Sizing by rule of thumb isn’t good enough. Typical jobs include not knowing whether a grant applies and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life, on radiator systems, air-to-air heat pumps and underfloor heating.
In a place like Brook, some homes are listed, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

Do you need air source heat pumps in Brook?
Extensions, renovations and loft conversions are a natural time to rethink the heating. Pipework, radiators and space for a cylinder are easier to plan while work is going on.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- Moving away from fossil-fuel heating
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Questions about listed buildings or conservation areas
Period properties close to Church of St Mary can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Tax rulings, which only HMRC can give
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
- A grant for a home that doesn’t meet the scheme rules

Heat pumps in Brook: local notes
Census 2021 figures found about 65% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Brook
Can I fit a heat pump in Brook without planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Brook sits inside a conservation area. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with Ashford council, which is usually the planning authority for Brook first.
Is Brook within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
It takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. The cylinder, the radiators and the pipework make the biggest difference, and we confirm the timing with your quote.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
What warranty do I get?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Whether it’s one property or many, the approach is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
The process
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it does not catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Somewhere like Brook, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
