How we handle air source heat pumps in Faberstown
A heat pump takes heat from the outside air and moves it into your home with electricity running the compressor and fans. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. If you are dealing with a boiler that’s getting old and finding a place for the outdoor unit, we can sort it out.
For a home around Faberstown that is off mains gas and heated by oil or LPG, an extra £1,500 is available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, on top of the £7,500.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

Looking after your system
So the system stays in good health:
- Let the heat pump run steadily, as set up at handover
- Don’t block radiators or indoor units with furniture
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
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.
Keep radiators and indoor units unobstructed so the heat can get into the room.
Air source heat pumps around Faberstown
About 43% of homes in the Faberstown area have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the last census (2021) found about 60% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.

What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, 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. Work in Faberstown is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need

Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Faberstown: your questions answered
Will you come out to Faberstown?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Faberstown?
It depends on the property. The half-mile around the middle of Faberstown holds about 4 listed buildings and structures. 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 planning department at Test Valley council, usually the authority for Faberstown first.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
The work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. We confirm the timing after the survey, so call us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line to arrange one.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim and we will tell you what your brand asks for.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
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.
