Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Frieth

An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler which means some radiators may need upsizing. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes and anything that needs changing is in the quote. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, air-to-water heat pumps and underfloor heating, and the jobs we see most are working out where a cylinder could go and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air.

Homes around Frieth usually have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.

Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Let and managed properties

Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.

Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

What we are called out for in Frieth

Homes off the gas grid, heated by oil or LPG, are often good candidates to look at. Until March 2027, an extra £1,500 is available for air source and ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas, subject to the scheme rules.

Any of these is worth a proper look:

  • Finding a place for the outdoor unit
  • Working out where a cylinder could go
  • A boiler that’s getting old

Older homes near Church of St John the Evangelist may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.

What to look for in a quote

  • Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
  • Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it

Questions from Frieth

Is the heat pump grant available in Frieth?

Frieth is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.

Can I fit a heat pump in Frieth without planning permission?

There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central Frieth is a short walk from the Frieth Conservation Area. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t face a road. Where needed, we check with Buckinghamshire council, which is typically the planning authority for Frieth.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

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 agree what happens next.

Which brands do you work with?

The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and explain why.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Frieth and across Oxfordshire. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

Will you make a mess?

Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before we start, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.

Does servicing affect my 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.

What happens on the day

The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved, and we clear up before we go. Work in Frieth is booked in advance at a time that suits you.

  1. It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
  2. We measure heat loss for every room.
  3. We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
  4. You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
  5. Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.

How to prepare

  • Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
  • Let us know where we can park and unload

How to get a quote

VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.

What a customer said

“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.”
