Air source heat pumps in Hound Green

How we handle air source heat pumps in Hound Green

A heat pump takes heat from the outside air and moves it into your home with electricity running the compressor and fans. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way and the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. We’re often asked to deal with moving away from fossil-fuel heating and no space for a hot water cylinder, on homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, hot water cylinders and underfloor heating.

Homes around Hound Green usually have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.

If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

What we’re called out for in Hound Green

People also ask about air-to-air heat pumps because they heat and cool. They warm rooms directly through indoor units and switch to cooling in warm weather. Whether a grant applies depends on the scheme conditions.

Common reasons people call us include:

  • Checking eligibility for a heat pump grant
  • Deciding on the outdoor unit position
  • Deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
  • Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
  • How VAT is shown, and which rate applies

Questions to ask before booking

Looking after your system

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Seal draughts where you can
  • Ask about the grant before you commit
  • Diary the next service

We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Heat pumps tend to work best running steadily rather than in short bursts so we set the controls up with you.

Have the system serviced regularly. Check the manufacturer’s terms, as they may include servicing conditions.

Safe owner checks

Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.

On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.

FAQs for Hound Green

Is the heat pump grant available in Hound Green?

Hound Green is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. 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 is not an add-on to a boiler. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.

Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Hound Green?

The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Hound Green sits inside a 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 the planning department at Hart council, usually the authority for Hound Green.

How does the warranty work?

The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a system failing in a server room or water leaking from a unit, ring our 24/7 line and we will tell you what to do first.

Do I get paperwork after the visit?

Yes. Every visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. We always look before we price, on a survey, or from your photos and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
