What affects the cost of air source heat pumps
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but every job is priced on its own. The quote depends on:
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.

- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The address and the type of property

How we handle air source heat pumps in Lingfield Common
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler, so radiators may need to be larger to give out the same heat. We check each radiator against the room’s heat loss, and the quote sets it out. Common call-outs are for wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, on air-to-air heat pumps, air-to-water heat pumps and underfloor heating.
Homes around Lingfield Common normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer, so keep it safe.

Common questions in Lingfield Common
Is a heat pump in Lingfield Common permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Around 6 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Lingfield Common. 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 Tandridge council, normally the authority for Lingfield Common first.
Is the heat pump grant available in Lingfield Common?
Lingfield Common 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. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. You get a written record of each visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How soon will you get back to me?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
An installation takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. The survey lets us set a firm programme, and you can ring us on 07833 053749 to book it.
