Questions from Burghfield Hill
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Burghfield Hill?
Burghfield Hill is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Burghfield Hill and across West Berkshire. Let us know who the records should go to.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water suits homes with radiators and a cylinder; air-to-air suits rooms that need heating and cooling, and we help you choose. We install both types.
Air source heat pumps in Burghfield Hill
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home; adding it alongside a boiler does not qualify. Common call-outs are for wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating and working out where a cylinder could go, across underfloor heating, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-air heat pumps.
Cottages and older homes near Burghfield Hill can lose heat faster, which a heat loss calculation will show. Sometimes insulation first is the better investment.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
A single unit or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before any work starts, with VAT shown clearly.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.

- 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.

- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
