How we price air source heat pumps
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- The brand, model and parts involved
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
What you pay depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, the access and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Before you get in touch
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
To help us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, pictures of the rooms or units, the brand and model of anything already fitted and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Once you have those, ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
How we handle air source heat pumps in Durley Street
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. Common call-outs are for questions about where the outdoor unit can go and questions about listed buildings or conservation areas, on homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, hot water cylinders and air-to-air heat pumps.
Older and listed homes in villages like Durley Street need extra care, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Questions from Durley Street
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Durley Street?
Durley Street is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. 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’re MCS certified.
Will you come out to Durley Street?
Yes. Durley Street is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
The work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. The survey lets us set a firm programme, and you can ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form to book it.
Do you work on all makes?
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’ll take it from there.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Every visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Air source heat pumps in Durley Street: the local picture
About 62 miles out from central London, Durley Street is part of the South East area we work across. Census 2021 figures found about 66% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler. As an MCS certified installer, we can apply for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for you.

What the work involves, system by system
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers grants towards heat pumps: £7,500 for air-to-water and ground source, and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases. The installer applies.
Heat loss surveys
The survey covers the building fabric and how air moves through it along with the room sizes.
Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Store the MCS certificate and warranty documents together
- Don’t block radiators or indoor units with furniture
- Look at insulation alongside the heat pump
Now and then in cold weather, the outdoor unit defrosts itself. You might see steam or hear the unit change note and it’s part of how the system works.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. It needs good airflow to collect heat from outside, so keep it clear all year.
How it works
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Durley Street.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
