Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Heyshott
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Heyshott and the rest of West Sussex. 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 will explain which type fits your home and why. If you are dealing with no space for a hot water cylinder and planning and permitted development questions, we can help.
Older and listed homes in villages like Heyshott need extra care, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, so we check consent first.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s 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.

When to call us in Heyshott
Homes with electric heating sometimes look at heat pumps as an alternative. A survey shows whether a heat pump suits the property and what would need to change along with whether any grant could apply.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Working out where a cylinder could go
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Comparing heat pump types
Historic houses such as Cowdray House, about 2.5 miles north, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.
What your quote should include
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected
What happens if it’s left?
Getting the sizing wrong causes problems that are hard to fix later. Doing the survey properly from the start avoids that. An early booking makes the visit to Heyshott easier to arrange.
A single unit or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You will have a fixed price before work begins, and the quote sets out the VAT.

What air conditioning won’t do
Air source heat pumps can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It does not solve:
- Disconnecting or servicing a gas boiler
- Formal advice on VAT for your situation
- Insulation work, such as loft or cavity wall insulation
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 07833 053749 or send an email and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from Heyshott
Can I fit a heat pump in Heyshott without planning permission?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Heyshott is a short walk from the Heyshott 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 Chichester council, which is normally the planning authority for Heyshott.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Heyshott?
Heyshott 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. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Is Heyshott in your area?
Yes. We cover Heyshott and the rest of West Sussex, as part of our area across London and the South East. For a fixed-price quote, call 07833 053749.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we’ll agree what happens next.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
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.
How the visit works
Our engineers 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 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. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Heyshott.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
How to get a quote
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by photos or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
