How we handle air source heat pumps in Minley
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home; adding it alongside a boiler does not qualify. We are often asked to deal with questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme 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 Minley, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Minley
Is Minley within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Minley?
Minley is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so it’s worth checking. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
Expect it to take anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. The cylinder, the radiators and the pipework make the biggest difference and the timing is set out with your quote.
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.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
What happens if it’s left?
A sudden boiler failure rarely leaves room to plan a heat pump properly. Planning ahead gives time for the heat loss survey, the design and the grant application while the old heating still works. Getting the date in early helps for a place like Minley.
The cost depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, the access and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What happens on the day
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Minley can be planned properly.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We explain which type of heat pump suits the home and whether a grant could apply.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Preparing for the visit

Homes in Minley and heat pumps
The middle of Minley is part of a conservation area. Historic England lists about 10 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Minley, including Minley Manor (grade II*). That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where needed, we check with Hart council, usually the planning authority here. The 2021 Census found about 71% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs. Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Andrew? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

Pricing air source heat pumps in Minley
You will get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- How many units are involved
- The pipe route between the units
- A single visit or a regular plan
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.
