Air source heat pumps in Hatchet Green

About our air source heat pumps in Hatchet Green

As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Hatchet Green and the rest of Hampshire. 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 help you work out which suits your home. Typical jobs include not knowing whether a grant applies and working out whether radiators need upsizing, on underfloor heating, radiator systems and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.

Homes around Hatchet Green normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.

Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. The work itself takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Work in Hatchet Green is booked in advance at a time that suits you.

  1. We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
  2. A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
  3. The design covers the heat pump, emitters, hot water and outdoor unit.
  4. You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
  5. We install, commission and register the system under MCS.

How to prepare

  • Let us know where the consumer unit is
  • Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Safe owner checks

Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.

Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.

Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Hatchet Green

The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • What kind of system it is
  • The condition of any existing system
  • Whether we need access equipment for high-level work

Our prices page shows typical ranges, but each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we will explain what it covers.

What we need to know

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • The remote or wall controller showing any error
  • The rating plate or label on any existing unit
  • The fuse board and where it is in the property

Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Hatchet Green questions

Can I fit a heat pump in Hatchet Green without planning permission?

That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central Hatchet Green is a short walk from the Western Escarpment Conservation Area. 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 Hatchet Green, typically New Forest council).

Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Hatchet Green?

Hatchet Green is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and isn’t an add-on to a boiler. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.

How much time does a heat pump install need?

As a guide, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short, and we explain it in advance.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

Do you look at the job first?

Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.

Do you work in Hatchet Green?

Yes. We cover Hatchet Green and across Hampshire, within the London and South East area we cover. To book, call us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.

How much does an air source heat pump cost?

An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before the grant. Eligible homes in England and Wales can get £7,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme though not every home qualifies.

What we’re called out for in Hatchet Green

Some people want to move away from burning fossil fuels at home. With a heat pump, the heat comes from the air outside and the system runs on electricity, which is why it fits that aim.

Customers typically contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump
  • Questions about where the outdoor unit can go
  • Checking whether planning permission is needed

Period properties close to Church of St Mary can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.
