About our air source heat pumps in Mid Holmwood
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Mid Holmwood and the rest of Surrey. Air-to-water systems feed your radiators or underfloor heating and hot water cylinder, while air-to-air systems heat rooms directly through indoor units and can cool them too. We’ll explain which type fits your home and why. We’re often asked to deal with checking emitters for a heat pump and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump, across radiator systems, air-to-air heat pumps and air-to-water heat pumps.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Mid Holmwood, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Think of the paperwork as the 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 and it’s worth keeping safe.

Common questions in Mid Holmwood
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Mid Holmwood?
Mid Holmwood is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and isn’t an add-on to a boiler. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will a heat pump in Mid Holmwood need planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Historic England lists about 4 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Mid Holmwood. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights don’t reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask the planning department at Mole Valley council, typically the authority for Mid Holmwood.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
Some radiators may be fine as they are, and some may need to be larger. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so radiators give out less heat so we check every radiator against the room’s heat loss.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, it’s £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. Air-to-air prices are set after a survey, and we confirm the VAT on the quote.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some brands make regular servicing a condition, so keep your service records.

How it works
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Mid Holmwood.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Preparing for the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
Ask for a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, photos of the rooms or units, the brand and model of anything already fitted and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then call 07833 053749 or email us.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Mid Holmwood
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
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 struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone 07833 053749 for straight advice and a fixed price.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by photos or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, call us on 07833 053749.
Air source heat pumps in Mid Holmwood: the local picture
Valuation Office Agency council tax records date about 43% of homes across Mid Holmwood and its surrounding area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972. Whether the walls and loft have been insulated makes a real difference to the heat pump size for homes of that period.
Polesden Lacey lies about 4.2 miles north-west. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions. Period properties close to Church of St John the Evangelist can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.
