Air source heat pumps in Kempshott: the local picture
At about 48 miles from central London, Kempshott sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 49% of homes in and around Kempshott to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and about 94% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
The Vyne lies about 4.9 miles north-east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.

Air source heat pumps in Kempshott, done properly
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. Homes with a combi boiler may not have a cylinder, so finding space for one is part of the survey. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. If the problem is not knowing whether a grant applies and working out where a cylinder could go, we can sort it out.
Older homes around Kempshott can be draughty or have solid walls, which a heat loss calculation will show. Sometimes insulation first is the better investment.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

Common problems we fix in Kempshott
Many enquiries start with a question about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme. Eligibility depends on the property, the system and the scheme rules, so we check before you commit.
Common reasons people call us include:
- Deciding on the outdoor unit position
- An oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life
- Working out where a cylinder could go
Older homes near Saint Mark's Church may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
Let and managed properties
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
How the visit works
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. On site, the work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Tell us about any gates or steps at your property near Kempshott when you book.
- 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.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.
- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
How to prepare
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a price
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because every property is different. Once we have looked at the job, from photos or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, call 07833 053749.
Advice
What affects the quote in Kempshott
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- The size of the job
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
Before you get in touch
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light

FAQs for Kempshott
Is Kempshott in your area for air source heat pumps?
Yes. Kempshott is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Kempshott?
Kempshott is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. 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. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
How soon will you get back to me?
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.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, 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.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
