System by system
Heat loss surveys
The survey works out the heat needed room by room. Everything else is sized from it.
Radiators and underfloor heating
At lower water temperatures, radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.
Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Millwall
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler, so radiators may need to be larger to give out the same heat. We check each radiator against the room’s heat loss and anything that needs changing is in the quote. The work covers hot water cylinders, radiator systems and air-to-water heat pumps, and common reasons people get in touch are a boiler that’s getting old and questions about where the outdoor unit can go.
For flats in Millwall, the lease, the freeholder and the rules for flats all come into it. Permitted development limits are different for flats, and we check before designing.
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 each visit is recorded.

Millwall questions
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Millwall?
Millwall is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Millwall?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
It takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. The cylinder, the radiators and the pipework make the biggest difference and the timing is set out with your quote.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
£8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) for air-to-water, before the grant. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder and the quote is fixed.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
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 when we finish.
Why it’s worth doing now in Millwall
Planning rules have specific conditions. We look at the planning position early, so there are no surprises, including conservation areas, listed buildings and Article 4 directions. Getting the work done in Millwall before summer avoids the busiest weeks.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Before you call an engineer
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are typically the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Heat pumps in Millwall: local notes
About 52% of homes in the Millwall area have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and Census 2021 figures found about 87% of households live in flats. Newer homes usually lose less heat, which tends to suit a heat pump well. For flats, the first questions are where an outdoor unit could go, whether a cylinder fits and what the lease allows. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.
Queen's House lies about 0.9 miles south-east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions. Older homes near Church of St Nicholas may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
