Managing agents and facilities teams in Codmore Hill
From a single flat to a whole estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
Air source heat pumps in Codmore Hill, done properly
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. The work covers hot water cylinders, air-to-water heat pumps and radiator systems, and people most often call us about an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and finding a place for the outdoor unit.
If your home in or near Codmore Hill 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.
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

What air conditioning will not do
Not every problem is solved by air source heat pumps, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Planning decisions, which rest with the council
- A grant for a home that doesn’t meet the scheme rules
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 07833 053749 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Air source heat pumps in Codmore Hill: the local picture
There are 2 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Codmore Hill. Historic England lists about 10 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Codmore Hill, including New Place Manor (grade II*). For a heat pump, permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with the planning team at Horsham council, which usually handles Codmore Hill where necessary. At about 40 miles from central London, Codmore Hill sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East.
Live in one of the older houses around The Parish Church of St Mary? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. Old Place Manor, roughly 1 mile south-west, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development does not cover listed buildings.

What happens on the day
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, it takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Codmore Hill easier.
- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Advice
Your questions about air source heat pumps in Codmore Hill
Is Codmore Hill within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Codmore Hill?
Codmore Hill is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and is not an add-on to a boiler. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Air-to-water work is in the £8,000–£16,000 range (0% VAT on homes), with any grant still to come off. Where you land depends on the size of heat pump, any radiators that need changing and the hot water cylinder. Air-to-air is priced after a survey.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and we help you choose. Both are part of what we install.
When will I hear back?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.

Safe owner checks
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
From one of our customers
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
