About our air source heat pumps in Cuddesdon
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. Homes with a combi boiler may not have a cylinder, so finding space for one is part of the survey. Air-to-air systems do not heat hot water, so you will need another way to do that. We are often asked to deal with a boiler that’s getting old and questions about listed buildings or conservation areas, across air-to-water heat pumps, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and radiator systems.
Homes around Cuddesdon normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
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 each visit is recorded.

What else we do in Cuddesdon
How we price air source heat pumps
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- How many units are involved
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
What you pay depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, how easy the units are to reach and what the work involves. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- Your installation or service records
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.

What we do, step by step
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Cuddesdon.
- 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.
- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Cuddesdon: your questions answered
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Cuddesdon?
Cuddesdon is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Cuddesdon?
It depends on the property. Historic England lists about 24 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Cuddesdon. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights do not reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask the planning department at South Oxfordshire council, usually the authority for Cuddesdon.
How quickly will you reply?
You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
