Air source heat pumps in Heaverham
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. We’re often asked to deal with checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump, on underfloor heating, hot water cylinders and radiator systems.
Homes around Heaverham typically have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

How the job changes from property to property
VAT on heat pumps
This is general information, not tax advice.
Hot water cylinders
Cylinder size is based on your household’s needs.
What affects the cost of air source heat pumps
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- The pipe route between the units
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are unsure, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email for straight advice and a fixed price.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- The make and model of the system, from the label

How the visit works
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. The work itself takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. For a place like Heaverham, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Related advice
Heaverham: your questions answered
Is a heat pump in Heaverham permitted development?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The centre of Heaverham is in a conservation area. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights do not reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask Sevenoaks council, which is normally the planning authority for Heaverham.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Heaverham?
Heaverham is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Do you work on all makes?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and explain why.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Air-to-water installations cost £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. Air-to-air systems are priced after a survey, with the VAT confirmed on your quote.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
The work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. The survey lets us set a firm programme, and you can give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us to book it.
Homes in Heaverham and heat pumps
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 43% of homes in Heaverham and the neighbourhoods around it to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and about 82% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Homes of that age often have cavity walls that may or may not be insulated, which the survey checks. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Period properties close to Church of St Mary can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. If your home is near Kemsing station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.
