About our air source heat pumps in Dunton
We install air source heat pumps in Dunton and across Buckinghamshire, and we are MCS certified. Air-to-water systems feed your radiators or underfloor heating and hot water cylinder, while air-to-air systems heat rooms directly through indoor units and can cool them too. We help you work out which suits your home. The work covers homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, air-to-air heat pumps and underfloor heating, and the jobs we see most are moving away from fossil-fuel heating and working out where a cylinder could go.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Dunton, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

Homes in Dunton and heat pumps
About 30% of homes in and around Dunton have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the 2021 Census found about 84% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump. Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
If your home is listed, like Ascott House about 4.4 miles east, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

Pricing air source heat pumps in Dunton
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- The size of the job
- The condition of any existing system
- The pipe route between the units
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Before you get in touch
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, phone us on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Dunton: your questions answered
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Dunton?
Dunton is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and is not an add-on to a boiler. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Is a heat pump in Dunton permitted development?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Historic England lists about 6 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Dunton. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the planning department at Buckinghamshire council, normally the authority for Dunton.
Will you make a mess?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts before we leave.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
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.
Do you work on all makes?
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 explain why.
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 yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.

Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Look at insulation alongside the heat pump
- Ask about the grant before you commit
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
If anything doesn’t seem right after installation, phone 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll talk it through. Annual servicing helps keep the system working well.
Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and stored items. Airflow is what it runs on, so keep it clear all year.
How the visit works
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Dunton can be planned properly.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.

- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
How to prepare
