Air source heat pumps in Isle of Dogs, done properly
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. 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, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. We’re often asked to deal with checking emitters for a heat pump and questions about listed buildings or conservation areas, across air-to-air heat pumps, radiator systems and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.
Terraced houses in a London area like Isle of Dogs can suit a heat pump well, as long as there’s a sensible spot for the outdoor unit and its noise is checked against the MCS planning standard.
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.

Why deal with it now?
A sudden boiler failure rarely leaves room to plan a heat pump properly. Surveying and designing in advance means the system is sized right and any grant is applied for before you need the heat. Consents in London blocks can take time, which is another reason to plan the job in Isle of Dogs early.
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.

Rented and managed buildings
From a single flat to a whole estate, the approach is the same: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building around the people who use them.
The process
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before any work starts, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Parking bays, permits and roof or balcony access are the first things we ask about in Isle of Dogs.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- The system is installed and connected to the controls.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Tell us about parking and loading
Getting a price
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Homes in Isle of Dogs and heat pumps
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures show about 52% of homes in and around Isle of Dogs were built in 2000 or later, and about 87% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. Newer homes typically lose less heat, which tends to suit a heat pump well. Flats are often harder for air-to-water systems, so we look at whether air-to-air suits better. London homes can be short of space for an outdoor unit and cylinder, which affects the choice of heat pump.
Historic houses such as Queen's House, about 0.8 miles south-east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in. If your home is near Greenwich station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.
Isle of Dogs is about 1 mile north-west of Greenwich, in Greater London. We cover Isle of Dogs for air source heat pumps and across the rest of Greater London. 764 places in Greater London are on our list, large and small.
The closest recent job we can point to from Isle of Dogs was on Greenwich High Road, Greenwich (SE10), about 1 mile south-east: installing a Mitsubishi Electric wall-mounted unit in the retail area and a second unit in the stockroom and office.
All of E14, SE8 and SE10 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. You’ll find streets such as Creek Road, Wynan Road and Undine Road, all of which are in our area. If you are just outside Isle of Dogs, we cover North Greenwich (1 mile north-west), Millwall (1 mile west), Cubitt Town (1 mile north-east), Deptford (1 mile south-west) and Greenwich (1 mile south-east). We also work in nearby towns such as London (3 miles west), City of Westminster (6 miles west), Marylebone (6 miles west) and Kensington (8 miles west).

What else we do in Isle of Dogs
Isle of Dogs: your questions answered
Is the heat pump grant available in Isle of Dogs?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Isle of Dogs, if they qualify. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Isle of Dogs?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
Expect it to take from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. How much of the heating changes decides most of the time and the timing is set out with your quote.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any grant. Eligible homes in England and Wales can get £7,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, and we confirm eligibility before you commit.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Each visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
