Homes in Felbridge and heat pumps
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 52% of homes in Felbridge and the neighbourhoods around it to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and the last census (2021) found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. Historic England lists about 3 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Felbridge, including Park Farm House (grade II). Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with the local planning authority (typically Tandridge council) before the heat pump design is finished.
Historic houses such as Saint Hill Manor, about 2.5 miles south-east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in. If your home is one of the older properties near St John's Felbridge, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

About our air source heat pumps in Felbridge
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. If the problem is ageing boilers that will need replacing and plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump, we can help.
Homes around Felbridge normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What affects the quote in Felbridge
Our prices page gives typical ranges, and your quote is built on your job. What we look at:
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The pipe route between the units
The cost depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, the access and the parts and time the job needs. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
After we’ve gone
Looking after it is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep to regular servicing
- Keep radiators clear
- File the MCS certificate safely
Handover includes the controls and how to get the best from a heat pump. Heat pumps tend to work best running steadily rather than in short bursts so we set the controls up with you.
Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and stored items. Airflow is what it runs on so keep it unobstructed.
How the job changes from property to property
Heat loss surveys
A heat loss survey measures how much heat each room loses on a cold day. Everything else is sized from it.
Hot water cylinders
The cylinder size depends on how much hot water the household uses.
How the visit works
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it does not catch you out. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone. On site, it takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Felbridge so we arrive with what’s needed.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- The system is commissioned and registered under MCS, and we show you how to use it.
How to prepare
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it

FAQs for Felbridge
Is the heat pump grant available in Felbridge?
Felbridge 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. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Do you cover smaller places like Felbridge?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
It depends on your home, your heating and whether you want cooling. Air-to-water can attract a £7,500 grant where eligible; air-to-air only qualifies for £2,500 under strict conditions, and we set out the options after the survey.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
As a guide, it takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. We plan the work so you’re without heating for as little time as possible, and we explain it in advance.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we will tell you what the manufacturer expects and stick to the interval they set.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
It depends on the property and where the unit goes. Flats have tighter limits, conservation areas add conditions, and Article 4 directions can remove rights, so we check during the survey.
