About our air source heat pumps in Lanham Green
Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than most boilers, so radiators may need to be larger to give out the same heat. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes, and the quote sets it out. If you are dealing with ageing boilers that will need replacing and moving away from fossil-fuel heating, we can help.
In a place like Lanham Green, some homes are listed, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

What a heat pump looks like in Lanham Green
Census 2021 figures found about 71% 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.
If your home is one of the older properties near Parish Church of All Saints, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.

Why act early in Lanham Green
From 1 April 2027, VAT on heat pumps in homes rises from 0% to 5%. If you are thinking about a heat pump, that date is worth knowing, though the right time also depends on your home and heating. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.

FAQs for Lanham Green
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Lanham Green?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Around 8 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Lanham Green. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with the planning department at Braintree council, normally the authority for Lanham Green first.
Will you come out to Lanham Green?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. The survey compares each radiator with the room’s needs and the quote shows what’s needed.
Can I get a grant for an air-to-air heat pump?
Sometimes, and the amount is £2,500 rather than £7,500. It must replace fossil-fuel heating and meet the full heating demand of a home with an MCS certified installer.
Am I eligible for a heat pump grant?
That depends on the scheme conditions, which we check for you. As the installer, we make the application where you qualify.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
Air-to-water suits homes with radiators and a cylinder; air-to-air suits rooms that need heating and cooling, and we help you choose. Both are part of what we install.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Lanham Green
When the building owner and the occupier are different, 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.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed-price quote.

Looking after your system
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:
- Keep radiators clear
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
- Diary the next service
Handover includes the controls and how to get the best from a heat pump. Heat pumps tend to work best running steadily rather than in short bursts so we set the controls up with you.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. Airflow is what it runs on so keep it unobstructed.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
