About our air source heat pumps in Isington
A £2,500 grant is available for some air-to-air heat pumps, with conditions. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home; adding it alongside a boiler does not qualify. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, radiator systems and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and the jobs we see most are an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating.
Older and listed homes in villages like Isington need extra care, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

The process
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, the work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. If a lane or gateway near Isington is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Tell us about parking and loading
Getting a price
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: 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. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

FAQs for Isington
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Isington?
It depends on the property. There’s a conservation area, the Isington Conservation Area, close to central Isington. 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 East Hampshire council, which is typically the planning authority for Isington.
Do you cover smaller places like Isington?
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.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
How quickly will you reply?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
A typical installation 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. We plan the work so you are without heating for as little time as possible and agreed before any work starts.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Homes in Isington and heat pumps
The 2021 Census found about 80% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
With Farnham Castle about 4.6 miles north-east, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump. For a home near Bentley (Hampshire) station, the survey looks at whether an air-to-water or air-to-air heat pump suits better.
Isington is about 4 miles north-east of Alton, in Hampshire. Our engineers cover Isington for air source heat pumps and across the rest of Hampshire. We cover 683 places across Hampshire, large and small. You can also see our page for Guildford, roughly 14 miles from Isington.
The closest recent job we can point to from Isington was on Castle Street, Farnham (GU9), about 5 miles north-east: installing a Fujitsu multi-split system serving three offices and a client meeting room.
Jobs in GU34 are looked at, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Close to Isington, our area also takes in Binsted (1 mile south), Blacknest (1 mile east), Bentley (1 mile north-east), Bucks Horn Oak (2 miles east) and Frithend (2 miles south-east).

How we price air source heat pumps
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- How many units are involved
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by pictures or a survey, the price is fixed. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Isington
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Whether it’s one property or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.
Why it’s worth doing now in Isington
Permitted development rules can change, and conditions vary between properties. Checking the position for your home at the survey stage avoids surprises later, including conservation areas, listed buildings and Article 4 directions. An early booking makes the visit to Isington easier to arrange.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.
