Air source heat pumps in Foley Park
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation and the installer makes the application. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. If the problem is no space for a hot water cylinder and finding a place for the outdoor unit, we can help.
Cottages and older homes near Foley Park can lose heat faster, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulating first makes more sense.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: agree the plan on site, protect the area, carry out the job, check the system and talk you through it. On site, the work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Getting to the outside of the property matters more than parking in a place like Foley Park.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- The survey measures heat loss room by room and looks at radiators, hot water and the best spot for the outdoor unit.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you are eligible for and the VAT explained.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
How to prepare
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

Foley Park: your questions answered
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Foley Park?
Foley Park is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Is Foley Park 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.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Every visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before booking and we’ll gladly show you ours.

Heat pumps in Foley Park: local notes
In the mile around Foley Park’s centre, 5 conservation areas have been designated. Historic England lists about 18 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Foley Park, including Grove House (grade II*). For a heat pump, permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with the local planning authority (normally Maidstone council) where needed. About 31 miles out from central London, Foley Park is part of the South East area we work across.
If your home is near Maidstone East station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.
