Air source heat pumps in Fuller Street, done properly
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales, and as the installer we apply for it on your behalf. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, underfloor heating and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and people most often call us about questions about where the outdoor unit can go and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Fuller Street, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Fuller Street
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Fuller Street?
Fuller Street is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Is a heat pump in Fuller Street permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The half-mile around the middle of Fuller Street holds about 5 listed buildings and structures. 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 Braintree council, which is typically the planning authority for Fuller Street.
Do you cover Fuller Street?
Yes. Our engineers work in Fuller Street, as part of our area across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead, West Sussex.
Are you F-Gas certified?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
For air-to-water, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any grant. Eligible homes in England and Wales can get £7,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, and we confirm eligibility before you commit.

Air source heat pumps in Fuller Street: the local picture
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures show about 49% of homes in Fuller Street and the neighbourhoods around it were built in 2000 or later, and about 72% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Lower heat loss in recent homes often means a smaller heat pump and fewer radiator changes. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation.

Common problems we fix in Fuller Street
Homes with electric heating sometimes look at heat pumps as an alternative. A survey shows whether a heat pump suits the property and what would need to change along with whether any grant could apply.
Customers usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Working out where a cylinder could go
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Older homes near Church of St Mary the Virgin may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
What to look for in a quote
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
- What records you get at the end
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
What air conditioning will not do
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Grants for hybrid systems or replacements of low-carbon systems
- Gas boiler work, such as disconnecting the old boiler, which needs a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Insulation work, such as loft or cavity wall insulation
Not sure which it is? You can phone 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.
