About our air source heat pumps in Little London
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. 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; adding it alongside a boiler does not qualify. The work covers radiator systems, air-to-air heat pumps and air-to-water heat pumps, and common reasons people get in touch are choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air and ageing boilers that will need replacing.
If your home in or near Little London is heated by oil, LPG or electric heaters with no mains gas, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme adds an extra £1,500 until March 2027 for an air source or ground source heat pump, on top of the £7,500.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and 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.

Pricing air source heat pumps in Little London
Typical ranges are on our prices page, and your quote is built on your job. What we look at:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The brand, model and parts involved
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we’ll explain each part.
Before you get in touch
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Heat pumps in Little London: local notes
About 84% of homes in Little London and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data, and the last census (2021) found about 63% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Better insulated, newer homes are often a good match for a heat pump. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler. If your home is one of the older properties near Christ Church, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

How it works
The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It 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, and we clear up before we go. Visits to Little London are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Let us know where the consumer unit is

Little London questions
Is the heat pump grant available in Little London?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Little London, if they qualify. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will a heat pump in Little London need planning permission?
It depends on the property. Around 4 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Little London. 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 Test Valley council, usually the authority for Little London.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the 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.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
When will I hear back?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.

For landlords and property managers
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
From a single flat to a whole estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
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.”
