Your questions about air source heat pumps in Haldens
Is a heat pump in Haldens permitted development?
It depends on the property. Historic England lists about 7 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Haldens. 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 the local planning authority (for Haldens, normally Welwyn Hatfield council).
Is the heat pump grant available in Haldens?
Haldens is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning and we explain the terms for your brand on the quote.
Is Haldens in your area?
Yes. Haldens is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East. Our base is in East Grinstead, West Sussex.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Each visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
How quickly will you reply?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Expect £8,000–£16,000 for an air-to-water system, with 0% VAT on homes, before the grant is taken off. Where you land depends on the size of heat pump, any radiators that need changing and the hot water cylinder. Air-to-air is priced after a survey.
Air source heat pumps in Haldens, done properly
We install air source heat pumps in Haldens and across Hertfordshire, and we are MCS certified. There are two kinds: air-to-water, which heats radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water, and air-to-air, which warms rooms through indoor units and can also cool. We help you work out which suits your home. If you’re dealing with deciding on the outdoor unit position and working out where a cylinder could go, we can help.
Cottages and older homes near Haldens can lose heat faster, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulating first makes more sense.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

How the visit works
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Getting to the outside of the property matters more than parking in a place like Haldens.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- The design covers the heat pump, emitters, hot water and outdoor unit.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Before we arrive
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
Getting a price

Heat pumps in Haldens: local notes
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 67% of homes in the Haldens area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and the 2021 Census found about 46% of households in terraced houses. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Terraced houses share walls with neighbours, which helps, but the outdoor unit position needs care with noise next door.
If you live near Welwyn North station, the survey compares air-to-water and air-to-air for your home before anything is quoted.

People also ask about air-to-air heat pumps because they heat and cool. They warm rooms directly through indoor units and switch to cooling in warm weather. The grant only applies in some cases, so we check first.
What we’re most often called about:
- Wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
If your home is one of the older properties near Christ the King, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Look at insulation alongside the heat pump
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Keep to regular servicing
Should you have questions after the install, phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will look into it. A yearly service is a good habit.
Heat pumps prefer steady, low-temperature running, using the settings agreed at handover.
From one of our customers
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
