How we handle air source heat pumps in Chadlington
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. We’re often asked to deal with a boiler that’s getting old and not knowing whether a grant applies, across air-to-air heat pumps, air-to-water heat pumps and underfloor heating.
If your home in or near Chadlington is heated by oil, LPG or electric heaters with no mains gas, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme adds an extra £1,500 until March 2027 for an air source or ground source heat pump, on top of the £7,500.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Homes in Chadlington and heat pumps
On the National Heritage List, around 21 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Chadlington; Church of St Nicholas (grade II*) is one. That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where needed, we check with the local planning authority (usually West Oxfordshire council). About 67 miles out from central London, Chadlington is part of the South East area we work across.
Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Nicholas? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.

How we price air source heat pumps
Our prices page gives typical ranges, and your quote is built on your job. What we look at:
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- How many units are involved
- What state the existing equipment is in
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is looked at first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
Quotes do not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
Looking after your system
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Diary the next service
- Read the manufacturer’s warranty terms for your brand
- File the MCS certificate safely
We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off so we set the controls up with you.
Have the system serviced regularly. Your manufacturer’s warranty terms may say something about servicing.
System by system
Air-to-air heat pumps
A £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant is available for air-to-air only if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the full heating demand. It must be installed by an MCS certified installer and be in a home.
Hot water cylinders
Cylinder size is based on your household’s needs.
The process
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before any work starts, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Work in Chadlington is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We explain which type of heat pump suits the home and whether a grant could apply.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Ask for a quote
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

FAQs for Chadlington
Is Chadlington within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Chadlington?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Chadlington is in England, where it applies. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always look before we price, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings are excluded, and listed building consent is separate, so we check for your property.
Do you work on all makes?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
