About our air source heat pumps in North Looe
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation, and as the installer we apply for it on your behalf. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. We’re often asked to deal with planning and permitted development questions and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant, across radiator systems, hot water cylinders and air-to-air heat pumps.
Homes around North Looe normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Questions from North Looe
Do you cover smaller places like North Looe?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in North Looe?
North Looe is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. 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. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We’re an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are also Checkatrade members.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
Air-to-water feeds your central heating and hot water, while air-to-air warms and cools rooms directly. With air-to-air, hot water needs another source and the survey helps decide.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
The work takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. The survey lets us set a firm programme, so phone 07833 053749 or send an email to arrange one.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
Looking after it afterwards
Systems last better with the right care. We suggest:
- Book a yearly service
- Leave indoor units unobstructed
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
In cold, damp weather the outdoor unit runs a defrost cycle from time to time. You might see steam or hear the unit change note, and that is normal.
Heat pumps prefer steady, low-temperature running as explained at handover.
Heat pumps in North Looe: local notes
North Looe’s centre is no more than about a third of a mile from the Higher Green Conservation Area. In the mile around North Looe’s centre, 4 conservation areas have been designated. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area? About 38% of homes in the North Looe area were built between the wars, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the last census (2021) found about 73% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Whether the walls and loft have been insulated makes a real difference to the heat pump size for homes of that period. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
If you live near Epsom Downs station, the survey compares air-to-water and air-to-air for your home before anything is quoted. If your home is listed, like Fitznells Manor about 1.3 miles north-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. The visit takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. For a place like North Looe, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you’re hoping for.
- 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.
- The price comes back fixed and in writing, with the grant and VAT shown line by line.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
Getting a quote
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.

How we price air source heat pumps
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
- The pipe route between the units
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re unsure, call us on 07833 053749 and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.
Before you get in touch
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
