Owner checks or an engineer?
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
How we handle air source heat pumps in Newchapel
Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures than most boilers which means some radiators may need upsizing. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes, and the quote sets it out. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and common reasons people get in touch are working out whether radiators need upsizing and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
Older and listed homes in villages like Newchapel need extra care, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Advice
Air source heat pumps in Newchapel: the local picture
About 70% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Saint Hill Manor, roughly 4 miles south, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development does not cover listed buildings. A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.
Newchapel is about 3 miles north-west of East Grinstead, in Surrey. Anywhere in RH7, our engineers can take on air source heat pumps. We cover 395 places across Surrey.
Not far from Newchapel, a recent job of ours was on Church Road, Lingfield (RH7), about 2 miles north-east: installing two LG wall-mounted units: one in the open-plan kitchen-living area and one in the master bedroom.

Questions from Newchapel
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Newchapel?
Newchapel is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Is a heat pump in Newchapel permitted development?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The half-mile around the middle of Newchapel holds about 7 listed buildings and structures. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with Tandridge council, which is usually the planning authority for Newchapel.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
An installation takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. We confirm the timing after the survey, so give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line to arrange one.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is 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.
Which brands do you work with?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
What does an air-to-water heat pump cost?
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before the grant. Eligible homes in England and Wales can get £7,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, and we confirm eligibility before you commit.
Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Newchapel
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The brand, model and parts involved
- The pipe route between the units
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings book us too across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building to keep disruption down.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
