Air source heat pumps in Longcross

Air source heat pumps in Longcross, done properly

Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than most boilers which means some radiators may need upsizing. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes, and the quote sets it out. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and hot water cylinders, and common reasons people get in touch are an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and comparing heat pump types.

Older and listed homes in villages like Longcross need extra care, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.

Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Common problems we fix in Longcross

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 are dealing with:

  • Wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating
  • Working out whether radiators need upsizing
  • An oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life

If your home is near Longcross station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.

Before you book anyone

  • Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
  • Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it

Questions to ask before booking

What air conditioning won’t do

We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:

  • Tax advice on your own circumstances
  • Promising eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
  • Getting planning permission or listed building consent on your behalf

If in doubt, give us a ring on 07833 053749 and we will say what we think.

What we work on in Longcross

  • Radiator systems
  • Homes heated by oil, LPG or gas
  • Hot water cylinders
  • Air-to-water heat pumps
  • Air-to-air heat pumps
  • Underfloor heating

Safe owner checks

Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.

Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.

FAQs for Longcross

Is a heat pump in Longcross permitted development?

The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The half-mile around the middle of Longcross holds about 4 listed buildings and structures. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t face a road. Where needed, we check with the local planning authority (for Longcross, typically Runnymede council).

Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Longcross?

Longcross is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.

Which brands do you work with?

The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.

Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?

Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.

Are my radiators big enough 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 you set up regular servicing?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

What we do, step by step

If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins so it does not catch you out. For businesses, we can typically work room by room or zone by zone. On site, it takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Longcross.

  1. You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
  2. A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
  3. You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
  4. Installation follows on the agreed dates.
  5. After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Let us know where we can park and unload

Air source heat pumps in Longcross: the local picture

Newer homes normally lose less heat, which tends to suit a heat pump well. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
