Your questions about air source heat pumps in Hook Norton
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Hook Norton?
It depends on the property. Central Hook Norton sits inside the Hook Norton 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 cannot face a road. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (for Hook Norton, typically Cherwell council).
Will you come out to Hook Norton?
Yes. Hook Norton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
How soon will you get back to me?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. 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.
Which brands do you work with?
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.
Can I get a grant for an air-to-air heat pump?
A £2,500 grant is available in some cases. Adding air-to-air alongside a boiler does not qualify, and it must cover the whole heating demand.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. We check them all during the survey, so the quote covers any changes.
Air source heat pumps in Hook Norton
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside with electricity running the compressor and fans. The technology is close to air conditioning, which is why we install both and the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, underfloor heating and radiator systems, and the jobs we see most are not knowing whether a grant applies and checking whether planning permission is needed.
If your home near Hook Norton 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, for an air source or ground source heat pump.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Hook Norton
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The equipment or parts the job needs
What you pay depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, how easy the units are to reach and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Your installation or service records
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hook Norton
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we’ll keep everyone informed.
What the work involves, system by system
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Not every home qualifies and we confirm it before anything is agreed.
Hot water cylinders
The cylinder size depends on how much hot water the household uses.
How it works
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It 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, and we tidy up before we leave. Send pictures of the space and the outside wall, and we can plan the work near Hook Norton.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, ring us on 07833 053749.
