Air source heat pumps in Duns Tew, done properly
Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than most boilers which means some radiators may need upsizing. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes and anything that needs changing is in the quote. We’re often asked to deal with plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump and questions about where the outdoor unit can go, across hot water cylinders, underfloor heating and air-to-air heat pumps.
Homes around Duns Tew usually 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. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

Pricing air source heat pumps in Duns Tew
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- Your consumer unit or fuse board

Questions from Duns Tew
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Duns Tew?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Duns Tew is in England, where it applies. 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. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will you come out to Duns Tew?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically 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.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s 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.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
How soon will you get back to me?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
What we do, step by step
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. On site, it takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. If a lane or gateway near Duns Tew is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
How the job changes from property to property
Radiators and underfloor heating
Underfloor heating works well with heat pumps because it uses lower temperatures, and we can connect to it where it’s already in.
Hot water cylinders
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. The survey looks at where it can go, especially if you have a combi boiler.
Homes in Duns Tew and heat pumps
Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 34% of homes in and around Duns Tew were built in 2000 or later, and about 79% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder. Duns Tew’s centre falls inside the Duns Tew Conservation Area. About 20 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Duns Tew, Manor House (grade II) among them. For a heat pump, permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with the local planning authority (usually Cherwell council) where necessary.
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler. If your home is one of the older properties near Church of St Mary Magdalene, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.
