Why deal with it now?
From 1 April 2027, VAT on heat pumps in homes rises from 0% to 5%. If you’re thinking about a heat pump, that date is worth knowing alongside your own plans for the property. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Air source heat pumps in Newman's End, done properly
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. The work covers radiator systems, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and common reasons people get in touch are checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life.
For a home around Newman's End that’s 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.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Gas boiler work, such as disconnecting the old boiler, which needs a Gas Safe registered engineer

- Tax advice on your own circumstances

Newman's End questions
Is Newman's End 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.
Is a heat pump in Newman's End permitted development?
It depends on the property. Historic England lists about 8 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Newman's End. 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 the planning department at Epping Forest council, normally the authority for Newman's End.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
Air-to-water feeds your central heating and hot water, while air-to-air warms and cools rooms directly. Air-to-air does not heat hot water, and we explain which suits your home.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
An installation takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. We confirm the timing after the survey, and you can ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line to book it.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Keep every service record either way.

What affects the cost of air source heat pumps
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The brand, model and parts involved
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- 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. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
