Air source heat pumps in Maiden's Green
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. Homes with a combi boiler may not have a cylinder, so finding space for one is part of the survey. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. Common call-outs are for no space for a hot water cylinder and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, on hot water cylinders, air-to-water heat pumps and air-to-air heat pumps.
Homes around Maiden's Green typically have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Maiden's Green: your questions answered
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Maiden's Green?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Maiden's Green is in England, where it applies. 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. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Maiden's Green?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The half-mile around the middle of Maiden's Green holds about 25 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 Maiden's Green, normally Bracknell Forest council).
Do you work in Maiden's Green?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of the South East, Maiden's Green included.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Maiden's Green and across Bracknell Forest. Let us know who the records should go to.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
What accreditations do you have?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
- Tax advice on your own circumstances
- Improving the building’s insulation
If you are not sure, just ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How we price air source heat pumps
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What electrical work the job needs
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- The number of rooms, units or zones
One room or a whole building, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You’ll have a fixed price before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Wide pictures of the room or the existing unit
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
To help us quote: the address and the type of property, a few photos, the brand and model of anything already fitted and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then ring 07833 053749.
Signs you need air source heat pumps in Maiden's Green
A common reason is wanting to stop burning gas, oil or LPG. With a heat pump, the heat comes from the air outside and the system runs on electricity and that is the appeal for many households.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- Checking emitters for a heat pump
- Replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Mary? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.
What your quote should include
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
