How we handle air source heat pumps in Motspur Park
A £2,500 grant is available for some air-to-air heat pumps, with conditions. 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, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. If the problem is ageing boilers that will need replacing and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, we can sort it out.
Homes in Motspur Park are often flats and terraces, where outside space is limited, which affects which heat pump suits. Air-to-water needs room for the outdoor unit and normally a cylinder, while air-to-air units take less room.
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. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

Questions from Motspur Park
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Motspur Park?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Motspur Park is a short walk from the Westcoombe Avenue Conservation Area. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with the local planning authority (for Motspur Park, normally Kingston-Upon-Thames council) first.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Motspur Park?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. 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.
Do you cover Motspur Park?
Yes. We cover Motspur Park and across Greater London, within the London and South East area we cover. To book, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will 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. For anything urgent, such as a system failing in a server room or water leaking from a unit, ring our 24/7 line and we’ll tell you what to do first.
When will I hear back?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
For landlords and property managers
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building around the people who use them.

Radiators and underfloor heating
Underfloor heating works well with heat pumps because it uses lower temperatures, and we can connect to it where it’s already in.

Homes in Motspur Park and heat pumps
Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 31% of homes in and around Motspur 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. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.
Homeowners near New Malden station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that. With Southside House about 0.8 miles north-east, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.

What happens on the day
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for 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 a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. In a London area like Motspur Park, parking and access are worth sorting out before the day.
- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
Getting a price
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
