Air source heat pumps in Marlow, done properly
Many air source heat pumps can be installed as permitted development in England, without a planning application. Conditions include a maximum outdoor unit size of 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), use for more than cooling alone and a site outside the curtilage of a listed building. We look at the planning position for your home during the survey. Typical jobs include questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme and working out where a cylinder could go, on radiator systems, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-air heat pumps.
In a town like Marlow, most heat pump enquiries are for houses heated by a gas boiler. A survey looks at heat loss, radiators, the hot water cylinder and where the outdoor unit can go, then design the system.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Marlow
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.

How the visit works
You do not need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. In a town like Marlow, parking is usually straightforward, so the main questions are access and timing.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
Getting a price
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. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Why it’s worth doing now in Marlow
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 while the old heating still works. Dealing with it now is normally simpler than a breakdown later.
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 go through it with you.

What owners can safely do
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and phone 07833 053749 or email us.
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
Air source heat pumps in Marlow: the local picture
About 40% of homes in and around Marlow date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Marlow’s centre falls inside the Marlow Conservation Area. 2 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Marlow. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 163 within half a mile of the centre, such as Crown Hotel (grade II*). So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?
Older homes near Congregational Church may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed. For a home near Marlow station, the survey looks at whether an air-to-water or air-to-air heat pump suits better.

Common questions in Marlow
Is Marlow in your area for air source heat pumps?
Yes. Marlow is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Marlow?
Marlow is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
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 does F-Gas certified mean?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before you book, and we are happy to show ours.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. 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.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
