How it works
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes, and we clear up before we go. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Milcombe so we arrive with what’s needed.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.

Advice
How we handle air source heat pumps in Milcombe
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside, using electricity to drive the process. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way and the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. The work covers radiator systems, air-to-water heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and common reasons people get in touch are working out where a cylinder could go and comparing heat pump types.
In a place like Milcombe, some homes are listed, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Why deal with it now?
If the emitters can’t give out enough heat, some rooms won’t get warm enough. Checking and upsizing them as part of the installation avoids that. For a village like Milcombe, booking ahead lets us plan the trip properly.
The cost depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, the access and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Common problems we fix in Milcombe
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme has made people ask whether their home could qualify. Eligibility depends on the property, the system and the scheme rules, so we check before you commit.
Common reasons people call us are:
- Ageing boilers that will need replacing
- Checking whether planning permission is needed
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
Broughton Castle lies about 2.2 miles north. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.
Before you book anyone
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
- Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Milcombe questions
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Milcombe?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Milcombe is in England, where it applies. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Will you come out to Milcombe?
Yes. Milcombe is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Will you make a mess?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
That depends on the brand. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim and we will tell you what your brand asks for.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that cannot wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Where a radiator is already large enough, it stays and any changes are in the quote.

Homes in Milcombe and heat pumps
About 82% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 9 within half a mile of the centre, such as Baytree House (grade II). For a heat pump, permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with the planning team at Cherwell council, which typically handles Milcombe where necessary.
Period properties close to Church of St Lawrence can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.
