How we handle air source heat pumps in Chorleywood
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. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, hot water cylinders and radiator systems, and common reasons people get in touch are working out where a cylinder could go and deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home.
Homes around Chorleywood usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder, so the main questions are heat loss, radiators and the electrics.
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, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Rented and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings in Chorleywood and across Hertfordshire. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building to keep disruption down.
What affects the quote in Chorleywood
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The size of the job
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by pictures or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, phone 07833 053749 or send an email.
Chorleywood: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Chorleywood?
Yes. Chorleywood is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Chorleywood?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Chorleywood, if they qualify. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Which brands do you work with?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
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.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
That depends on your home and the unit’s position. Flats have tighter limits, conservation areas add conditions, and Article 4 directions can remove rights, so we check during the survey.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder and the quote is fixed.
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’ll talk you through the next steps.
What air source heat pumps can’t fix
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Grants for hybrid systems or replacements of low-carbon systems
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
- Planning decisions, which rest with the council
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we will say what we think before you book.

What happens on the day
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out.

Air source heat pumps in Chorleywood: the local picture
About 64% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these. Roughly a third of a mile or less from central Chorleywood, you reach the Chorleywood Common Conservation Area. In the mile around Chorleywood’s centre, 3 conservation areas have been designated. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 10 within half a mile of the centre, such as Christchurch (grade II*). So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?
If your home is listed, like Chenies Manor House about 2.1 miles north-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work. Live in one of the older houses around Christ Church? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.
