Air source heat pumps in Great Easton, done properly
Many air source heat pumps can be installed as permitted development in England, without a planning application. The conditions include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³ and compliance with MCS 020(a), and the unit can’t be used solely for cooling or sit within the curtilage of a listed building. We check the rules for your property as part of the survey. Common call-outs are for a boiler that’s getting old and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant, on homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, radiator systems and air-to-air heat pumps.
Older and listed homes in villages like Great Easton need extra care, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler and it’s worth keeping safe.

What we are called out for in Great Easton
An ageing boiler is often the moment people start thinking about a heat pump. Starting early leaves time for the survey, the design and any grant application, rather than rushing a replacement in winter.
The things we are asked about most are:
- Checking eligibility for a heat pump grant
- Plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump
- Checking emitters for a heat pump
With Horham Hall about 2.7 miles north-west, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.

FAQs for Great Easton
Is Great Easton within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is the heat pump grant available in Great Easton?
Great Easton is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. 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.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.

Homes in Great Easton and heat pumps
VOA council tax data show about 44% of homes in and around Great Easton were built in 2000 or later, and the last census (2021) found about 63% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. The centre of Great Easton lies within the Great Easton Conservation Area. On the National Heritage List, around 24 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Great Easton; St John And St Giles Church (grade II*) is one. That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where needed, we check with Uttlesford council, normally the planning authority here.
Older homes near Church of St John and St Giles may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
