FAQs for Meonstoke
Do you cover smaller places like Meonstoke?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Will a heat pump in Meonstoke need planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The Corhampton and Meonstoke Conservation Area is close to the centre of Meonstoke. 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 planning department at Winchester City council, usually the authority for Meonstoke.
Is there a Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant for air-to-air?
There is a £2,500 grant for air-to-air, but only under strict conditions. The system must replace the existing fossil-fuel heating, meet the home’s full heating demand, be installed by an MCS certified installer and be in a home.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
When will I hear back?
You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. We check them all during the survey, so the quote covers any changes.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.
About our air source heat pumps in Meonstoke
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. Common call-outs are for a boiler that’s getting old and working out where a cylinder could go, on homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, radiator systems and hot water cylinders.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Meonstoke, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Advice
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
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.
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.
