Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Hollington

As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Hollington and the rest of East Sussex. There are two kinds: air-to-water, which heats radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water, and air-to-air, which warms rooms through indoor units and can also cool. We help you work out which suits your home. The work covers underfloor heating, air-to-water heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and people most often call us about working out whether radiators need upsizing and questions about where the outdoor unit can go.

Whether a home near Hollington has mains gas makes a difference to the grant. Homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas can get an extra £1,500 on the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, for an air source or ground source heat pump.

Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

The process

Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. The visit takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. Send pictures of the space and the outside wall, and we can plan the work near Hollington.

  1. It begins with your house and the heating it relies on 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. Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Hollington: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Hollington?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Hollington?

Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Hollington is in England, where it applies. 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. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.

What does F-Gas certified mean?

Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.

How do you keep the place clean during the 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 have done.

How much time does a heat pump install need?

It takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. How much of the heating changes decides most of the time and the timing is set out with your quote.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.

Which accreditations do you hold?

AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.

What we are called out for in Hollington

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme has made people ask whether their home could qualify. Eligibility depends on the property, the system and the scheme rules, so we check before you commit.

It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:

  • Checking eligibility for a heat pump grant
  • No space for a hot water cylinder
  • Radiators that may be too small for a heat pump

If your home is one of the older properties near St Anne, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

  • What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
  • Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
  • How VAT is shown, and which rate applies

Our hiring checklist

After we have gone

Aftercare is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Read the manufacturer’s warranty terms for your brand
  • Let the heat pump run steadily, as set up at handover
  • Keep the outdoor unit clear all year

Should you have questions after the install, call 07833 053749 and we’ll talk it through. A yearly service is a good habit.

A well-insulated home helps a heat pump, as lower heat loss means the system has less to do.

From one of our customers

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
