Air source heat pumps in Keeres Green: the local picture
The 2021 Census found about 84% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Barrington Hall, roughly 3.4 miles north-west, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings. Live in one of the older houses around Parish Church of St Michael and All Angels? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

How we handle air source heat pumps in Keeres Green
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. The system must replace the existing fossil-fuel heating and meet the home’s full heating demand, it must be installed by an MCS certified installer, and it must be in a home; adding it alongside a boiler does not qualify. The work covers homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, air-to-water heat pumps and hot water cylinders, and common reasons people get in touch are an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and checking emitters for a heat pump.
In a place like Keeres Green, some homes are listed, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Rented and managed buildings
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is and we are happy to deal with whoever it is.
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
The process
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Somewhere like Keeres Green, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand

Keeres Green: your questions answered
Is a heat pump in Keeres Green permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Around 15 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Keeres Green. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights do not reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask Uttlesford council, which is usually the planning authority for Keeres Green.
Is the heat pump grant available in Keeres Green?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Keeres Green is in England, where it applies. 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.
How does the warranty work?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer, so keep your service records.
Is Keeres Green in your area?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Keeres Green.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
A customer’s words
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
