- Wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Seeing the property in photos first helps us plan the trip to Haylands.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you’re hoping for.
- On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- The system is commissioned and registered under MCS, and we show you how to use it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.

Air source heat pumps in Haylands
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. If the problem is checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, we can help.
If your home near Haylands has no mains gas, the grant can be bigger. Until March 2027, homes on oil or LPG without mains gas can get an extra £1,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Common problems we fix in Haylands
When a home is being extended or renovated, it’s a good moment to look at heat pumps. Pipework, radiators and space for a cylinder are easier to plan while work is going on.
Customers typically contact us after spotting one of these:
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home
- Planning and permitted development questions
For a home near Ryde St Johns Road station, the survey looks at whether an air-to-water or air-to-air heat pump suits better.

Air source heat pumps around Haylands
Haylands is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, we choose the outdoor unit position with salt-laden wind in mind. Census 2021 figures found about 73% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Historic houses such as Nunwell House, about 2.5 miles south, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.

Questions from Haylands
Will a heat pump in Haylands need planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The centre of Haylands is in a 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 can’t face a road. Where necessary, we check with Isle of Wight council, which is normally the planning authority for Haylands.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Haylands?
It can, as Haylands is within about 2 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.
Will my home qualify for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?
That depends on the scheme conditions, which we check for you. As the installer, we make the application where you qualify.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before you book and we’ll gladly show you ours.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
As a guide, it takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. We plan the work so you’re without heating for as little time as possible, and we explain it in advance.
Is Haylands in your area?
Yes. Our engineers work in Haylands, within the South East and London area we cover. Our base is in East Grinstead, West Sussex.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep radiators clear
- Find out the grant position at the survey
- Read the manufacturer’s warranty terms for your brand
After commissioning, the installation is registered under MCS and you receive the certificate. Keep it with the manufacturer’s paperwork, as you may need it later.
Keep radiators and indoor units unobstructed, as the system relies on them giving out heat.
System by system
Radiators and underfloor heating
Underfloor heating suits a heat pump’s lower flow temperature and we look at it during the survey.
Outdoor unit position and planning
Flats have tighter limits, and an Article 4 direction can remove permitted development rights. Listed buildings also need separate consent and we check what applies to you.
