Air source heat pumps in Jenkins' Green
A heat pump takes heat from the outside air and moves it into your home, using electricity to drive the process. 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. If you’re dealing with plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump and checking whether planning permission is needed, we can sort it out.
Older and listed homes in villages like Jenkins' Green need extra care, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Jenkins' Green
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Jenkins' Green?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Jenkins' Green, if they qualify. Air-to-water and ground source systems attract £7,500. Air-to-air gets £2,500, but only where it takes over from fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s heating demand. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Do you cover smaller places like Jenkins' Green?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
Air-to-water work is in the £8,000–£16,000 range (0% VAT on homes), with any grant still to come off. Where you land depends on the size of heat pump, any radiators that need changing and the hot water cylinder. Air-to-air is priced after a survey.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and explain why.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
Air-to-water heats radiators or underfloor heating and hot water; air-to-air heats rooms through indoor units and can cool them. With air-to-air, hot water needs another source and the survey helps decide.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
When to call us in Jenkins' Green
An ageing boiler is often the moment people start thinking about a heat pump. Starting early leaves time for the survey, the design and any grant application, rather than rushing a replacement in winter.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Ageing boilers that will need replacing
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Moving away from fossil-fuel heating
Older homes near St Luke's Church may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.

- What’s in the price and what is not
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
What happens on the day
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Jenkins' Green.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- We explain which type of heat pump suits the home and whether a grant could apply.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Before we arrive
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time

What a heat pump looks like in Jenkins' Green
The coast is only about 3 miles from Jenkins' Green. Salt air is hard on outdoor units, so a heat pump near the sea needs a sensible position and regular checks, and some models offer corrosion protection for coastal sites. About 79% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. Historic England lists about 13 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Jenkins' Green, including Hankham Hall (grade II). For a heat pump, permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with the local planning authority (typically Wealden council) where needed.
With Michelham Priory about 4.8 miles north-west, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.

Let and managed properties
Bigger systems bring extra duties: 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.
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
