Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Dean Street
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Dean Street and the rest of Kent. There are two kinds: air-to-water, which heats radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water, and air-to-air, which warms rooms through indoor units and can also cool. We help you work out which suits your home. Typical jobs include finding a place for the outdoor unit and plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump, on hot water cylinders, air-to-air heat pumps and radiator systems.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Dean Street, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

Dean Street: your questions answered
Is a heat pump in Dean Street permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The East Farleigh Dean Street Conservation Area takes in the middle of Dean Street. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot face a road. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (for Dean Street, usually Maidstone council).
Is the heat pump grant available in Dean Street?
Dean Street is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Air-to-water and ground source systems attract £7,500. Air-to-air gets £2,500, but only where it takes over from fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s heating demand. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Is Dean Street in your area?
Yes. We cover Dean Street and across Kent, within the London and South East area we cover. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or send an email.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, usually whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
It depends on each radiator and the room it heats. At the lower temperatures a heat pump uses, radiators need more surface, and the survey checks each one.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
A typical installation takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before work begins.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.

How we price air source heat pumps
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- What state the existing equipment is in
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Leave it or put it right?
