Air source heat pumps in Churchgate, done properly
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler, so radiators may need to be larger to give out the same heat. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes, and the quote sets it out. The work covers hot water cylinders, radiator systems and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home and working out where a cylinder could go.
For a house near Churchgate, space outside is rarely the problem, so heat loss, radiators and the electrics are what we check.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Churchgate: your questions answered
Can I fit a heat pump in Churchgate without planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The centre of Churchgate is in the Churchgate 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 the local planning authority (for Churchgate, normally Broxbourne council) first.
Is Churchgate within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we’ll tell you what to do first.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
A typical installation takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before any work starts.
Will you make a mess?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
Some radiators may be fine as they are, and some may need to be larger. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so radiators give out less heat so we check every radiator against the room’s heat loss.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
How we price air source heat pumps
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The condition of any existing system
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- The pipe route between the units
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is looked at first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Before you get in touch
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
Air source heat pumps in Churchgate: the local picture
About 39% of households live in terraced houses, according to the last census (2021). Shared walls keep a terrace’s heat loss down, while gardens next door make the noise check on the outdoor unit important.
If your home is one of the older properties near St Mary the Virgin, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. If your home is listed, like Forty Hall about 2.5 miles south, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

On site, it takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. We load the van from the survey notes so the work in Churchgate can be done in one go where possible.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
