What affects the cost of air source heat pumps
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
How we handle air source heat pumps in Newhall
In England, an air source heat pump on a house can often go in under permitted development rights. Conditions include a maximum outdoor unit size of 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), use for more than cooling alone and a site outside the curtilage of a listed building. We look at the planning position for your home during the survey. If you’re dealing with checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and checking emitters for a heat pump, we can help.
For a house near Newhall, space outside is rarely the problem, so the main questions are heat loss, radiators and the electrics.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Before you call an engineer
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, 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 normally the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. 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.
FAQs for Newhall
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Newhall?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Newhall is in England, where it applies. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Can you do air source heat pumps in Newhall?
Yes. Newhall is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump 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 manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
In England, many air source heat pumps on houses can be permitted development provided the conditions are met. These include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), not being used solely for cooling and not being within the curtilage of a listed building.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
As a guide, it takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before work begins.

What we do, step by step
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it doesn’t catch you out. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone.

- 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.
- You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Clear access to the fuse board

Why it’s worth doing now in Newhall
The 0% VAT rate on heat pumps in homes runs until 31 March 2027, then 5% applies. If you are thinking about a heat pump, that date is worth knowing, though the right time also depends on your home and heating. A system that is left with a fault, or without a service, usually costs more to run.
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Homes in Newhall and heat pumps
VOA council tax data date about 41% of homes in and around Newhall to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and Census 2021 figures found about 42% of households in terraced houses. Whether the walls and loft have been insulated makes a real difference to the heat pump size for homes of that period. Terraced houses share walls with neighbours, which helps, but the outdoor unit position needs care with noise next door. There are 5 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Newhall. That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where necessary, we check with the planning team at Harlow council, which typically handles Newhall.
If your home is one of the older properties near Church of St Mary the Virgin, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.
