Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we’ll keep everyone informed.
Air source heat pumps in Cock Marling, done properly
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside, using electricity to drive the process. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. If the problem is an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump, we can help.
For a home around Cock Marling that is off mains gas and heated by oil or LPG, an extra £1,500 is available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Common questions in Cock Marling
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Cock Marling?
It can. Cock Marling is within about 3 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Do you cover smaller places like Cock Marling?
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 grant cover air-to-air heat pumps?
There is a £2,500 grant for air-to-air, but only under strict conditions. The system must replace the existing fossil-fuel heating, meet the home’s full heating demand, be installed by an MCS certified installer and be in a home.
Will my home qualify for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?
We check the scheme rules for your property before you go ahead. The installer applies for the grant, so we handle the application if you are eligible.
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 explain why.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so it’s worth checking. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
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 agree what happens next.

What we do, step by step
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Cock Marling.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.
- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
How to prepare
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

Owner checks or an engineer?
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
What air source heat pumps cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Planning decisions, which rest with the council
- Tax rulings, which only HMRC can give
- A grant for a home that does not meet the scheme rules
Not sure which it is? You can ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover

Air source heat pumps around Cock Marling
At about 3 miles from the coast, Cock Marling is close enough for sea air to matter. Coastal sites are worth mentioning at the survey, as salt air affects the outdoor unit and its fixings. The centre of Cock Marling lies within a conservation area. About 8 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Cock Marling, Float Farmhouse (grade II) among them. 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 planning team at Rother council, which typically handles Cock Marling.
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler. If your home is listed, like Lamb House about 2.5 miles east, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.
