Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Horton Heath
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. Air-to-air systems do not heat hot water, so you will need another way to do that. If the problem is comparing heat pump types and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life, we can help.
Cottages and older homes near Horton Heath can lose heat faster, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulation first is the better investment.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

Common questions in Horton Heath
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Horton Heath?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Horton Heath 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. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Can I fit a heat pump in Horton Heath without planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Historic England lists about 4 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Horton Heath. 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 the planning department at Eastleigh council, typically the authority for Horton Heath.
Do you cover Horton Heath?
Yes. We cover Horton Heath and across Hampshire, as part of our area across London and the South East. For a fixed-price quote, call 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
An installation takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. We confirm the timing after the survey, so ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form to arrange one.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
The process
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, 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. Around Horton Heath, access is typically simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.

Preparing for the visit
