Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Manor Park
Every installation starts with a heat loss survey. That tells us how much heat the home needs, room by room, so the heat pump and the radiators or indoor units can be sized properly. Sizing by rule of thumb is not good enough. Typical jobs include replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, on air-to-air heat pumps, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-water heat pumps.
A terrace in Manor Park shares walls with its neighbours, which helps keep heat in, as long as there’s a sensible spot for the outdoor unit and its noise is checked against the MCS planning standard.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

Manor Park questions
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Manor Park?
Normally, yes, though leaseholders normally need the freeholder’s agreement. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Is a heat pump in Manor Park permitted development?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. The half-mile around the middle of Manor Park holds about 5 listed buildings and structures. 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 Newham council, which is usually the planning authority for Manor Park.
Do you cover Manor Park?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of the South East, Manor Park included.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
It depends on your home, your heating and whether you want cooling. The grant is £7,500 for eligible air-to-water systems and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases. We explain the options after the survey.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
A typical 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 programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before any work starts.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Do you need air source heat pumps in Manor Park?
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.
Look out for any of the following:
- Questions about listed buildings or conservation areas
- Wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating
- Checking eligibility for a heat pump grant
If you live near Manor Park station, the survey compares air-to-water and air-to-air for your home before anything is quoted.
Before you book anyone
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
- What records you get at the end
Owner checks or an engineer?
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Homes in Manor Park and heat pumps
Valuation Office Agency council tax records put about 58% of homes in Manor Park and the neighbourhoods around it before 1919, and about 45% of households live in flats, according to the 2021 Census. Period properties can still suit a heat pump, but the design has to start from accurate heat loss figures. A flat may have no room for a hot water cylinder, and the freeholder usually has a say on the outdoor unit, which can tip the choice towards air-to-air. London homes can be short of space for an outdoor unit and cylinder, which affects the choice of heat pump.
Valentines Mansion, roughly 1.6 miles north, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development does not cover listed buildings.

- Air-to-air heat pumps
- Hot water cylinders
- Homes heated by oil, LPG or gas
- Underfloor heating
What happens on the day
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which 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. In a London area like Manor Park, parking and access are worth sorting out before the day.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you are hoping for.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
How to prepare
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.
