Air source heat pumps in Nether Wallop
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. If the problem is an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump, we can help.
For a home around Nether Wallop that is off mains gas and heated by oil or LPG, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme adds an extra £1,500 until March 2027 for an air source or ground source heat pump, on top of the £7,500.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

What a heat pump looks like in Nether Wallop
About 37% of homes in the Nether Wallop area were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the last census (2021) found about 83% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Older homes can lose heat faster, so a room-by-room heat loss calculation, and sometimes insulation or larger radiators, comes before sizing a heat pump. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
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. Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation.
Nether Wallop is about 7 miles south-west of Andover, in Hampshire. From the centre of Nether Wallop to the outskirts, we cover air source heat pumps, from a single room to a whole building.

Nether Wallop questions
Do you cover smaller places like Nether Wallop?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Nether Wallop?
It depends on the property. The Nether Wallop Conservation Area takes in the middle of Nether Wallop. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t face a road. Where needed, we check with the local planning authority (for Nether Wallop, typically Test Valley council).
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How quickly will you reply?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Leave indoor units unobstructed
- Let the heat pump run steadily, as set up at handover
- Keep up with insulation and draught-proofing
If you were eligible for a grant, we handle the application and keep you updated, as the installer applies for it.
Keep radiators and indoor units unobstructed, as the system relies on them giving out heat.
Why deal with it now?
Radiators that are too small for a heat pump’s lower flow temperature leave rooms cool. Checking and upsizing them as part of the installation avoids that. Getting the date in early helps for a place like Nether Wallop.
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Before you call an engineer
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
How it works
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, which takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Nether Wallop can be planned properly.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
