Air source heat pumps near Dancers Hill

How the visit works

Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Let us know who controls access to the building in Dancers Hill, as that saves time on the day.

  1. We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
  2. We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
  3. We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
  4. Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
  5. Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.

How to prepare

  • Clear access to the fuse board
  • Tell us about parking and loading
  • Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in

How we handle air source heat pumps in Dancers Hill

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. If you are dealing with checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and no space for a hot water cylinder, we can sort it out.

Terraced houses in a London area like Dancers Hill can suit a heat pump well, as long as there’s a sensible spot for the outdoor unit and its noise is checked against the MCS planning standard.

Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

Common questions in Dancers Hill

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Dancers Hill?

Dancers Hill is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.

Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Dancers Hill?

Normally, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. 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.

Will you work on another installer’s system?

Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.

Do you look at the job first?

Yes. For simple jobs, photos and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.

How does the warranty work?

The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.

What the work involves, system by system

Heat loss surveys

Without a proper survey, a heat pump can be too big or too small, and both cause problems.

VAT on heat pumps

For air-to-air systems, HMRC’s view depends on the product and the situation and the VAT is confirmed on your quote.

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.”
