Air source heat pumps in Fifield, done properly
Installing an air source heat pump in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, then 5%. 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 underfloor heating, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and people most often call us about working out where a cylinder could go and moving away from fossil-fuel heating.
Older and listed homes in villages like Fifield need extra care, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so we check consent first.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Fifield
Facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings book us too across Windsor and Maidenhead. Larger buildings can be done in stages around the people who use them.
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
When to call us in Fifield
Extensions, renovations and loft conversions are a natural time to rethink the heating. It’s simpler to plan radiators, pipework and a cylinder while the builders are in.
What we’re most often called about:
- Working out where a cylinder could go
- Questions about where the outdoor unit can go
- An oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life
If your home is one of the older properties near All Saints, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it
- Whether the quote is a fixed price

Different systems, different jobs
VAT on heat pumps
For air-to-air systems, HMRC’s view depends on the product and the situation, so we confirm the VAT on your quote.
Radiators and underfloor heating
Underfloor heating suits a heat pump’s lower flow temperature and we look at it during the survey.
Common questions in Fifield
Is the heat pump grant available in Fifield?
Fifield is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Fifield?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. A conservation area takes in the middle of Fifield. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the planning department at Windsor and Maidenhead council, usually the authority for Fifield.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
How quickly will you reply?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
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 recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. Every visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
The process
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Visits to Fifield are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
Getting a quote
Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from photos and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
