Air source heat pumps in Fulmer, done properly
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Fulmer and the rest of Slough. Air-to-water systems feed your radiators or underfloor heating and hot water cylinder, while air-to-air systems heat rooms directly through indoor units and can cool them too. We will explain which type fits your home and why. If the problem is questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and working out whether radiators need upsizing, we can help.
Older and listed homes in villages like Fulmer need extra care, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Homes in Fulmer and heat pumps
About 72% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs. Live in one of the older houses around Church of St James? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

FAQs for Fulmer
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Fulmer?
Fulmer 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. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Fulmer?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The centre of Fulmer is in the Fulmer 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 cannot face a road. Where necessary, we check with Buckinghamshire council, which is typically the planning authority for Fulmer.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. Ask to see proof before booking anyone, and we are happy to show ours.
Do you work in Fulmer?
Yes. Our engineers work in Fulmer, within the South East and London area we cover. We’re based in East Grinstead, West Sussex.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. We check them all during the survey and the quote shows what’s needed.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Fulmer
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is and we’re happy to deal with whoever it is.
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork, and we will keep everyone informed.
The process
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. The visit takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Fulmer.

Advice
How the job changes from property to property
Hot water cylinders
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. Space for the cylinder is part of the survey particularly in homes with a combi boiler.
Air-to-water heat pumps
Flow temperatures are lower than with a typical boiler, which is why radiator sizing is part of the survey.
