Questions from Linchmere
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Linchmere?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. The centre of Linchmere is in the Lynchmere Conservation Area. 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 local planning authority (for Linchmere, normally Chichester council) first.
Is Linchmere within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
How soon will you get back to me?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
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.
How we handle air source heat pumps in Linchmere
A £2,500 grant is available for some air-to-air heat pumps, with conditions. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. We’re often asked to deal with plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump and working out where a cylinder could go, across underfloor heating, hot water cylinders and air-to-water heat pumps.
Older and listed homes in villages like Linchmere need extra care, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Do you need air source heat pumps in Linchmere?
Extensions, renovations and loft conversions are a natural time to rethink the heating. It’s simpler to plan radiators, pipework and a cylinder while the builders are in.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- Replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump
- A boiler that is getting old
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
- If the quote is based on a survey, photos or a diagnosis
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
System by system
Heat loss surveys
We look at walls, windows, floors, roofs and ventilation along with the room sizes.
Radiators and underfloor heating
Any radiator changes are set out in the quote, so you know the full scope.

What we do, step by step
Every visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, protect the area, do the work, test what we’ve done and talk you through it. On site, the work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. We plan the trip to Linchmere around you.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Linchmere
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered, and you will get one fixed price.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by pictures or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
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.”
