Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Conyer
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. Typical jobs include not knowing whether a grant applies and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life, on underfloor heating, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and hot water cylinders.
For a home around Conyer that is off mains gas and heated by oil or LPG, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme adds an extra £1,500 until March 2027 for an air source or ground source heat pump, on top of the £7,500.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

How it works
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Conyer.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, a few pictures, the make and model of any existing system and any symptoms, from error codes to drips. Once you have those, phone us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.

Air source heat pumps around Conyer
The coast is only about 1 mile from Conyer. Near the coast, we choose the outdoor unit position with salt-laden wind in mind. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 35% of homes across Conyer and its surrounding area before 1919, and the 2021 Census found about 69% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. In older homes, the heat loss calculation is especially important, as solid walls and draughts change the size of heat pump needed. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation. Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Mary? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.
Conyer is about 4 miles east of Sittingbourne, in Kent. We cover Conyer for air source heat pumps and across the rest of Kent. Count every place we list in Kent and you reach 922, with Conyer on the list. Our Bromley page covers places nearby, about 35 miles away.
Streets in the area include North Quay and Conyer Road, all of which are in our area. Jobs in ME9 are looked at, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Places around Conyer that are also on our list: Teynham Street (1 mile south-east), Deerton Street (1 mile south-east), Teynham (1 mile south), Norton Ash (2 miles south) and Lewson Street (2 miles south). Further out, we also cover Maidstone (14 miles south-west), Ashford (15 miles south), Canterbury (12 miles south-east) and Sittingbourne (4 miles west).
Landmarks near Conyer
For rail, the closest station is Teynham station, roughly 1.1 miles south. Other landmarks nearby include Dolphin Sailing Barge Museum (3.1 miles west) and Castle Rough (2.8 miles west).
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after it is simple, and it helps at the next service:
- Avoid switching the heat pump on and off often
- Do not block radiators or indoor units with furniture
- Check eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme early
In cold, damp weather the outdoor unit runs a defrost cycle from time to time. You might see steam or hear the unit change note, and that is normal.
Keep insulation and draught-proofing in good order because it reduces the heat the system needs to supply.
Questions from Conyer
Does being near the sea make a difference to air source heat pumps in Conyer?
It can, as Conyer is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.
Is Conyer within the area you cover?
Yes. Conyer is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant?
We confirm eligibility at the survey stage. There’s one grant per property, you can’t get one to replace a low-carbon system, and hybrids are excluded and other conditions apply.
What does an air-to-water heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, it’s £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. Air-to-air prices are set after a survey, and we confirm the VAT on the quote.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
Can I get a grant for an air-to-air heat pump?
The scheme offers £2,500 for air-to-air, but the conditions are strict. It won’t apply if the system is an add-on next to a boiler, and it must cover the whole heating demand.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
The right choice depends on the property and what you need. Air-to-water can attract a £7,500 grant where eligible; air-to-air only qualifies for £2,500 under strict conditions. We explain the options after the survey.
When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
- Grants for hybrid systems or replacements of low-carbon systems
- Formal advice on VAT for your situation
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.

From one of our customers
“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.”
