Common questions in Hundred Acres
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Hundred Acres?
Hundred Acres 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. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will you come out to Hundred Acres?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
What warranty do I get?
Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder, and you get a fixed-price quote.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Air source heat pumps in Hundred Acres
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside with electricity running the compressor and fans. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. The work covers radiator systems, hot water cylinders and air-to-air heat pumps, and people most often call us about a boiler that’s getting old and working out where a cylinder could go.
Homes around Hundred Acres usually have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Also in Hundred Acres
Owner checks or an engineer?
Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
When to call us in Hundred Acres
People also ask about air-to-air heat pumps because they heat and cool. They heat rooms through wall, floor or ceiling units and switch to cooling in warm weather. The grant only applies in some cases, so we check first.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
- No space for a hot water cylinder
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Period properties close to Church of St Nicholas can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.
Questions to ask before booking
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
