About our air source heat pumps in East Clandon
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. If the problem is no space for a hot water cylinder and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, we can help.
Homes around East Clandon normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

What else we do in East Clandon
East Clandon questions
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in East Clandon?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including East Clandon, if they qualify. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in East Clandon?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The centre of East Clandon is in the East Clandon Conservation Area. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights don’t reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask the planning department at Guildford council, typically the authority for East Clandon.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms. The survey helps decide. We install both types.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
A typical installation takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before any work starts.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder, and you get a fixed-price quote.
When to call us in East Clandon
People also ask about air-to-air heat pumps because they heat and cool. They warm rooms directly through indoor units, and can cool them when it’s hot. The grant only applies in some cases, so we check first.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
- Deciding on the outdoor unit position
- Plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump
Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Thomas of Canterbury? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

Pricing air source heat pumps in East Clandon
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we’ve looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
How it works
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. For a village like East Clandon, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We explain which type of heat pump suits the home and whether a grant could apply.
- The system is installed and connected to the controls.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Why it’s worth doing now in East Clandon
The 0% VAT rate on heat pumps in homes runs until 31 March 2027, then 5% applies. If you’re thinking about a heat pump, that date is worth knowing, though the right time also depends on your home and heating. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but your price depends on the job in front of us. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form, and we will explain what it covers.
