How we handle air source heat pumps in Foulford
We begin with a room-by-room heat loss survey. It shows how much heat each room needs on a cold day so the system is sized to match. Sizing by rule of thumb isn’t good enough. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, hot water cylinders and underfloor heating, and the jobs we see most are moving away from fossil-fuel heating and planning and permitted development questions.
If your home in or near Foulford is heated by oil, LPG or electric heaters with no mains gas, an extra £1,500 is available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, on top of the £7,500.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
What a heat pump looks like in Foulford
The Western Escarpment Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Foulford, within about a third of a mile. For a heat pump, permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with New Forest council, normally the planning authority here where needed. Census 2021 figures found about 84% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
If your home is listed, like Avon Tyrrell House about 3.3 miles south, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work. Older homes near St John the Baptist may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.

How it 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 typically work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Visits to Foulford are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- It starts with a conversation about the home, the existing heating and your plans.
- We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- The system is commissioned and registered under MCS, and we show you how to use it.
How to prepare
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

FAQs for Foulford
Is Foulford within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Foulford?
Foulford 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. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
Air-to-water heats radiators or underfloor heating and hot water; air-to-air heats rooms through indoor units and can cool them. With air-to-air, hot water needs another source and the survey helps decide.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
That depends on the brand. 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.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Where a radiator is already large enough, it stays, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
In England, many air source heat pumps on houses can be permitted development provided the conditions are met. These include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), not being used solely for cooling and not being within the curtilage of a listed building.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
