Managing agents and facilities teams in Kingsley
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 can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
Air source heat pumps in Kingsley
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 the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. Typical jobs include deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life, on hot water cylinders, air-to-water heat pumps and air-to-air heat pumps.
Older and listed homes in villages like Kingsley need extra care, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, 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.

Different systems, different jobs
Radiators and underfloor heating
At lower water temperatures, radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Eligibility depends on the property and the scheme rules and we confirm it before anything is agreed.
Kingsley questions
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Kingsley?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Kingsley is in England, where it applies. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Kingsley?
It depends on the property. The half-mile around the middle of Kingsley holds about 7 listed buildings and structures. 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 the planning department at East Hampshire council, typically the authority for Kingsley.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
£8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) for air-to-water, before the grant. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder, and you get a fixed-price quote.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
The work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. We confirm the timing after the survey, and you can ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line to book it.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
That depends on the brand. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
Other services in Kingsley
Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help:
- Keep to regular servicing
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
- Check eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme early
Handover includes the controls and how to get the best from a heat pump. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off so we set the controls up with you.
Book a service every year. Check the manufacturer’s terms, as they may include servicing conditions.
What we do, step by step
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Kingsley.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- 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.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
How to prepare
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: 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.
Advice
What a heat pump looks like in Kingsley
Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 31% of homes in the Kingsley area were built in 2000 or later. Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump.
If your home is one of the older properties near Church of All Saints, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation.
