Heat pumps in Farringdon: local notes
Central Farringdon is inside the Farringdon Conservation Area. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 37 within half a mile of the centre, such as Cruck Cottage (grade II*). That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where needed, we check with the planning team at East Hampshire council, which typically handles Farringdon. About 61% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
Period properties close to Church of All Saints can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

Air source heat pumps in Farringdon
We install air source heat pumps in Farringdon and across Hampshire, and we are MCS certified. Air-to-water systems feed your radiators or underfloor heating and hot water cylinder, while air-to-air systems heat rooms directly through indoor units and can cool them too. We’ll explain which type fits your home and why. Typical jobs include not knowing whether a grant applies and radiators that may be too small for a heat pump, across air-to-water heat pumps, hot water cylinders and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.
In a place like Farringdon, some homes are listed, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so we check consent first.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

What we’re called out for in Farringdon
A common reason is wanting to stop burning gas, oil or LPG. With a heat pump, the heat comes from the air outside and the system runs on electricity and that’s the appeal for many households.
Customers usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Not knowing whether a grant applies
- Checking whether planning permission is needed
- Questions about where the outdoor unit can go
If your home is listed, like Bentworth Hall about 3.7 miles north-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included

The process
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Farringdon.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know where we can park and unload

Farringdon questions
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Farringdon?
Farringdon is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. 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. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will you come out to Farringdon?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
How does the warranty work?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we will tell you what to do first.
What accreditations do you have?
We are an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Rented and managed buildings
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Leave it or put it right?
The extra £1,500 for homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas is available until March 2027. For homes that qualify, that’s a reason to look into it now. Booking before summer means the work in Farringdon is done before the hot weather.
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
