Why act early in Millbrook
A heat pump sized without a proper heat loss survey can struggle in cold weather or run inefficiently. Doing the survey properly from the start avoids that. An early booking makes the visit to Millbrook easier to arrange.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Air source heat pumps in Millbrook, done properly
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Millbrook and the rest of Southampton. 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 will explain which type fits your home and why. If you’re dealing with radiators that may be too small for a heat pump and not knowing whether a grant applies, we can help.
Whether a home near Millbrook has mains gas makes a difference to the grant. Homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas can get an extra £1,500 on the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

What else we do in Millbrook
How the visit works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Visits to a place like Millbrook are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the job needs.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Tell us about parking and loading
Getting a price
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Advice
What affects the quote in Millbrook
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- What kind of system it is
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
For a fixed-price quote, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form with the address and a few details about the rooms or units involved. A few photos make it quicker. We reply to enquiries the same working day.
Keeping the system healthy
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Diary the next service
- Use the settings explained at handover
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
Equipment warranties come from the manufacturer. We go through the conditions with you, including any servicing they ask for.
A well-insulated home helps a heat pump because it reduces the heat the system needs to supply.
Questions from Millbrook
Do you cover smaller places like Millbrook?
Yes. Millbrook is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Millbrook?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Millbrook is in England, where it applies. Air-to-water and ground source systems attract £7,500. Air-to-air gets £2,500, but only where it takes over from fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s heating demand. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, 24/7. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Will I need planning consent for an air source heat pump?
Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings and their curtilages are excluded, and listed building consent is a separate matter. We check what applies to you.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
We find out during the survey. Where a radiator is already large enough, it stays and any changes are in the quote.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.
Heat pumps in Millbrook: local notes
At about 1 mile from the coast, Millbrook is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the coast, we choose the outdoor unit position with salt-laden wind in mind.
If your home is listed, like Southampton Tudor House and Garden about 2.2 miles south-east, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work. Live in one of the older houses around Church of the Holy Trinity? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.
