System by system
Hot water cylinders

Heat loss surveys
The survey covers the building fabric and how air moves through it along with the room sizes.
About our air source heat pumps in Cookham Dean
A £2,500 grant is available for some air-to-air heat pumps, with conditions. 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; adding it alongside a boiler does not qualify. If the problem is comparing heat pump types and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life, we can sort it out.
If your home in or near Cookham Dean 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.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

How it works
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. On site, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Somewhere like Cookham Dean, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
How to prepare
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Clear access to the fuse board

FAQs for Cookham Dean
Is the heat pump grant available in Cookham Dean?
Cookham Dean 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. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Can I fit a heat pump in Cookham Dean without planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The centre of Cookham Dean is in a conservation area. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the local planning authority (for Cookham Dean, usually Windsor and Maidenhead council).
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
We find out during the survey. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
What accreditations do you have?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We’re also Checkatrade members.
When will I hear back?
You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
