How we handle air source heat pumps in Heckfield
Until 31 March 2027, a heat pump installed in residential accommodation carries 0% VAT, with 5% from 1 April 2027. This is HMRC’s energy-saving materials relief, which applies to homes rather than businesses, and for air-to-air systems we confirm the VAT on your quote. Please treat this as general information rather than tax advice. Typical jobs include checking emitters for a heat pump and finding a place for the outdoor unit, on radiator systems, air-to-water heat pumps and hot water cylinders.
In a place like Heckfield, some homes are listed, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Air source heat pumps in Heckfield: the local picture
Heckfield’s centre falls inside a designated conservation area. Highfield House, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 24 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Heckfield’s centre. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area? The 2021 Census found about 68% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Michael? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. Historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House, about 1.7 miles west, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.

Different systems, different jobs
Hot water cylinders
Cylinder size is based on your household’s needs.
Heat loss surveys
A heat loss survey measures how much heat each room loses on a cold day. It’s the basis for sizing the heat pump and the radiators.
Heckfield: your questions answered
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Heckfield?
Heckfield is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Do you cover smaller places like Heckfield?
Yes. Heckfield is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and we help you choose. Both are part of what we install.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
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.

The process
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. 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 a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. For a village like Heckfield, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.

A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
