Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Eridge Green
Installing an air source heat pump in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, then 5%. That follows HMRC Notice 708/6, and it does not apply to businesses. For air-to-air systems, we confirm the VAT on your quote. Please treat this as general information rather than tax advice. We are often asked to deal with choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, on air-to-air heat pumps, underfloor heating and hot water cylinders.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Eridge Green, 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 will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Common questions in Eridge Green
Is Eridge Green within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Will a heat pump in Eridge Green need planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The Eridge Green and The Forstal Conservation Area takes in the middle of Eridge Green. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with the local planning authority (for Eridge Green, usually Wealden council) first.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
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.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so it’s worth checking. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some brands make regular servicing a condition, so keep your service records.
Heat pumps in Eridge Green: local notes
About 48% of homes in and around Eridge Green were built before 1919, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the 2021 Census found about 83% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Older homes can lose heat faster, so a room-by-room heat loss calculation, and sometimes insulation or larger radiators, comes before sizing a heat pump. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
If your home is one of the older properties near Holy Trinity Church, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. If your home is listed, like Groombridge Place about 1.9 miles north-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

How we price air source heat pumps
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- A single visit or a regular plan
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
To help us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, photos of the rooms or units, the make and model of any existing system and any symptoms, from error codes to drips. Once you have those, ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Before you call an engineer
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are usually the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
What happens if it’s left?
Radiators that are too small for a heat pump’s lower flow temperature leave rooms cool. The survey picks this up before installation. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
