About our air source heat pumps in Middle Park
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Middle Park and the rest of Greater London. There are two kinds: air-to-water, which heats radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water, and air-to-air, which warms rooms through indoor units and can also cool. We help you work out which suits your home. If the problem is moving away from fossil-fuel heating and radiators that may be too small for a heat pump, we can sort it out.
Homes in Middle Park are often flats and terraces, where outside space is limited, which affects which heat pump suits. An air-to-water system needs space outside and normally a hot water cylinder inside, while an air-to-air system needs less space.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Middle Park
Will a heat pump in Middle Park need planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The centre of Middle Park is in a conservation area. 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 Bromley council, which is normally the planning authority for Middle Park.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Middle Park?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder normally have a say. 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.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Which accreditations do you hold?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. We’re also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Does the grant cover air-to-air heat pumps?
Sometimes, and the amount is £2,500 rather than £7,500. The system has to replace the fossil-fuel heating and heat the whole home with an MCS certified installer.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
How the job changes from property to property
Heat loss surveys
The survey works out the heat needed room by room. It’s the basis for sizing the heat pump and the radiators.
Air-to-water heat pumps
Air-to-water systems take heat from the air and put it into your central heating and hot water. It replaces the boiler as the main heat source and we install it to MCS standards.
What happens on the day
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Photos of the room and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan most of a visit to Middle Park in advance.

Homes in Middle Park and heat pumps
VOA council tax data show about 63% of homes in and around Middle Park date from 1919 to 1939. Homes of that age often have cavity walls that may or may not be insulated, which the survey checks. London homes can be short of space for an outdoor unit and cylinder, which affects the choice of heat pump.
Homeowners near Mottingham station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that.
