Air source heat pumps in Furneux Pelham
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. Air-to-air systems don’t heat hot water, so you’ll need another way to do that. Common call-outs are for checking whether planning permission is needed and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump, across underfloor heating, hot water cylinders and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.
In a place like Furneux Pelham, some homes are listed, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

What we do, step by step
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Furneux Pelham so we arrive with what’s needed.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.

- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.

Advice
How the job changes from property to property
VAT on heat pumps
Heat pumps in homes carry 0% VAT until 31 March 2027, and 5% after that, under HMRC Notice 708/6. It does not apply to businesses.
Air-to-water heat pumps
Air-to-water systems work at lower temperatures than boilers, so radiator sizes matter.

What else we do in Furneux Pelham
Why deal with it now?
For eligible off-gas homes on oil or LPG, an extra £1,500 is on offer until March 2027. If that applies to you, it’s worth asking about sooner rather than later. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Air source heat pumps in Furneux Pelham: the local picture
The middle of Furneux Pelham is part of the Furneux Pelham Conservation Area. Church of St Mary, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 25 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Furneux Pelham’s centre. Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with the local planning authority (normally East Hertfordshire council) before the heat pump design is finished. About 67% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation. If your home is one of the older properties near Church of St Mary, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

After we have gone
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:
- Store the MCS certificate and warranty documents together
- Ask about the grant before you commit
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
If anything doesn’t seem right after installation, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will look into it. A yearly service is a good habit.
A well-insulated home helps a heat pump because it reduces the heat the system needs to supply.

You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water feeds your central heating and hot water, while air-to-air warms and cools rooms directly. Air-to-air does not heat hot water, and we explain which suits your home.
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.”
