About our air source heat pumps in Manor House
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler 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, underfloor heating and air-to-water heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are comparing heat pump types and moving away from fossil-fuel heating.
Homes in Manor House are often flats and terraces, where outside space is limited, and that decides which kind of heat pump works. Air-to-water needs room for the outdoor unit and typically a cylinder, while air-to-air units take less room.
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.

What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, which takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. If a freeholder or agent needs to agree the work in Manor House, we can send them the details.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
Getting a price
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from photos or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email.

Why it’s worth doing now in Manor House
Replacing a boiler in a hurry when it breaks leaves little time to consider a heat pump. Surveying and designing in advance means the system is sized right and any grant is applied for before you need the heat. If a lease or managing agent is involved in Manor House, start the conversation early.
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.

Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Heat pumps in Manor House: local notes
About 54% of homes across Manor House and its surrounding area were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and Census 2021 figures found about 78% of households live in flats. In older homes, the heat loss calculation is especially important, as solid walls and draughts change the size of heat pump needed. In flats, space for an outdoor unit and a cylinder can be limited, and the lease and freeholder come into it, so air-to-air is sometimes the better fit. For a London home, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need careful planning.
With Bruce Castle about 2.1 miles north-east, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump. Older homes near Church of St Olave may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.

Common questions in Manor House
Is a heat pump in Manor House permitted development?
It depends on the property. The Stoke Newington Resvrs, Filter Beds and New River Conservation Area is close to the centre of Manor House. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the local planning authority (for Manor House, usually Hackney council).
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Manor House?
Usually, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
That depends on the room’s heat loss and the radiator’s size. The survey compares each radiator with the room’s needs, so the quote covers any changes.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a 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.
Is there VAT on a heat pump?
For homes, 0% until 31 March 2027, under HMRC Notice 708/6 and 5% after that. With air-to-air, HMRC’s view depends on the product, so we confirm the VAT on the quote.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and we help you choose. Both are part of what we install.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Looking after your system
Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Book a yearly service
- Look at insulation alongside the heat pump
- Use the settings explained at handover
We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off, and we will explain the settings for your home.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. It needs good airflow to collect heat from outside, so keep it clear all year.
