How we handle air source heat pumps in East Hanney
Until 31 March 2027, a heat pump installed in residential accommodation carries 0% VAT, with 5% from 1 April 2027. This is HMRC’s energy-saving materials relief, which applies to homes rather than businesses. For air-to-air systems, we confirm the VAT on your quote. Please treat this as general information rather than tax advice. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, underfloor heating and radiator systems, and the jobs we see most are checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and comparing heat pump types.
If your home in or near East Hanney is heated by oil, LPG or electric heaters with no mains gas, an extra £1,500 is available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, on top of the £7,500.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

What happens on the day
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, 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. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to East Hanney so we arrive with what’s needed.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- 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.
- The system is installed and connected to the controls.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
How to prepare
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

What happens if it’s left?
Permitted development rules can change, and conditions vary between properties. We look at the planning position early, so there are no surprises, including conservation areas, listed buildings and Article 4 directions. An early booking makes the visit to East Hanney easier to arrange.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in East Hanney
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the units are to reach
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are unsure, ring 07833 053749 for straight advice and a fixed price.
What to send for a quote
Good photos often save a visit. Try to include:
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
Here’s what helps us quote: the address and the type of property, photos of the rooms or units, the make and model of any existing system and any symptoms, from error codes to drips. Then call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

East Hanney questions
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in East Hanney?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including East Hanney, if they qualify. 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. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Will you come out to East Hanney?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always look before we price, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Will I need planning consent for an air source heat pump?
Often not in England, as many heat pumps on houses are permitted development provided the conditions are met. The outdoor unit must be 1.5 m³ or less, comply with MCS 020(a), not be cooling-only and not be within a listed building’s curtilage.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Air source heat pumps around East Hanney
About 38% of homes in East Hanney and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data, and about 65% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. The middle of East Hanney is part of the East Hanney Conservation Area. On the National Heritage List, around 27 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of East Hanney; Manor Farmhouse (grade II) is one. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?
Period properties close to Church of St James can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. If your home is listed, like Longworth House about 4.5 miles north-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.
