Air source heat pumps in Kitwood, done properly
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside, using electricity to drive the process. The technology is close to air conditioning, which is why we install both and the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. If you’re dealing with working out whether radiators need upsizing and wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating, we can sort it out.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Kitwood, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
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.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
- Avoid switching the heat pump on and off often
- File the MCS certificate safely
If anything doesn’t seem right after installation, call 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will look into it. A yearly service is a good habit.
Book a service every year. Check the manufacturer’s terms, as they may include servicing conditions.
What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker, and we clear up before we go. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Kitwood.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- We fit the outdoor unit and connect it to the heating, hot water and controls.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time

Heat pumps in Kitwood: local notes
About 32% of homes in the Kitwood area have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data, and Census 2021 figures found about 87% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Newer homes normally lose less heat, which tends to suit a heat pump well. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. About 50 miles out from central London, Kitwood is part of the South East area we work across.
Live in one of the older houses around Church of the Good Shepherd? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. Historic houses such as Bentworth Hall, about 3.8 miles north, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.

- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- What kind of system it is
- How easy the units are to reach
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

When you call or email, it’s useful to have:

Air-to-air heat pumps
Air-to-air heat pumps warm rooms through indoor units and can cool them in summer. Hot water needs a separate source, so that has to come from elsewhere.
Common questions in Kitwood
Can you do air source heat pumps in Kitwood?
Yes, Kitwood is within the area we cover. To start, call us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few pictures.
Is the heat pump grant available in Kitwood?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Kitwood is in England, where it applies. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and is not an add-on to a boiler. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
