Safe owner checks
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
How we handle air source heat pumps in Curdridge
We begin with a room-by-room heat loss survey. It shows how much heat each room needs on a cold day so the system is sized to match. Sizing by rule of thumb isn’t good enough. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, air-to-air heat pumps and radiator systems, and people most often call us about working out where a cylinder could go and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Curdridge, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer, so keep it safe.

What happens if it’s left?
A sudden boiler failure rarely leaves room to plan a heat pump properly. Surveying and designing in advance means the system is sized right and any grant is applied for while the old heating still works. Booking before summer means the work in Curdridge is done before the hot weather.
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.

A £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant is available for air-to-air only if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the full heating demand. It must be installed by an MCS certified installer and be in a home.
Radiators and underfloor heating
Any radiator changes are set out in the quote, so you know the full scope.
Curdridge questions
Is Curdridge within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is the heat pump grant available in Curdridge?
Curdridge is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
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. The survey helps decide. We install both types.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so it’s worth checking. Keep every service record either way.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
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.
Air source heat pumps in Curdridge: the local picture
Hill Farmhouse, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 5 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Curdridge’s centre. For a heat pump, permitted development does not 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 Winchester City council, usually the planning authority here where needed. Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 53% of homes in and around Curdridge were built in 2000 or later, and the 2021 Census found about 61% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Lower heat loss in recent homes often means a smaller heat pump and fewer radiator changes. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Peter? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. If you live near Botley station, the survey compares air-to-water and air-to-air for your home before anything is quoted.

The process
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it does not catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Visits to Curdridge are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- It starts with a conversation about the home, the existing heating and your plans.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you are eligible for and the VAT explained.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
