About our air source heat pumps in Cock Street
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler which means some radiators may need upsizing. We check each radiator against the room’s heat loss and anything that needs changing is in the quote. We are often asked to deal with choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air and not knowing whether a grant applies, on homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, air-to-air heat pumps and air-to-water heat pumps.
Older and listed homes in villages like Cock Street need extra care, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Owner care supports servicing; it does not replace it. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Cock Street
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Cock Street?
Cock Street is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Is Cock Street in your area for air source heat pumps?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Cock Street is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some brands make regular servicing a condition, so keep your service records.
How soon will you get back to me?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.

- We measure heat loss for every room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.

Do you need air source heat pumps in Cock Street?
Homes off the gas grid, heated by oil or LPG, are often good candidates to look at. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme includes an extra £1,500, until March 2027, for air source or ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas, subject to the scheme rules.
The things we’re asked about most include:
- Moving away from fossil-fuel heating
- Deciding on the outdoor unit position
- Questions about listed buildings or conservation areas
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.
What your quote should include
- If the figure could change on the day
- What the manufacturer’s warranty covers and for how long
- What paperwork you will receive afterwards
Leave it or put it right?
For eligible off-gas homes on oil or LPG, an extra £1,500 is on offer until March 2027. If that applies to you, it’s worth asking about sooner rather than later. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
One room or a whole building, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the equipment. The price is fixed before work begins, with VAT shown clearly.
Why book with us
- One contact for properties across the South East and London
- Members of Checkatrade
- Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba and more
- Every job looked at before it’s priced

A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
