How the job changes from property to property
Outdoor unit position and planning
The outdoor unit needs a position with good airflow, a solid base and a sensible pipe route. We also consider neighbours and noise, as MCS 020(a) includes a noise check.
Radiators and underfloor heating
Underfloor heating suits a heat pump’s lower flow temperature, and we can connect to it where it’s already in.
Air source heat pumps in North Sheen
We install air source heat pumps in North Sheen and across Greater London, and we are MCS certified. There are two kinds: air-to-water, which heats radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water, and air-to-air, which warms rooms through indoor units and can also cool. We help you work out which suits your home. The work covers underfloor heating, air-to-air heat pumps and radiator systems, and the jobs we see most are a boiler that’s getting old and finding a place for the outdoor unit.
In a flat in North Sheen, the lease and the freeholder normally decide where a heat pump can go. The planning rules for flats are stricter than for houses, so we check the position before we design.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Air source heat pumps in North Sheen: the local picture
About 46% of homes in the North Sheen area were built before 1919, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the 2021 Census found about 47% of households live in flats. Period properties can still suit a heat pump, but the design has to start from accurate heat loss figures. In flats, space for an outdoor unit and a cylinder can be limited, and the lease and freeholder come into it, so air-to-air is sometimes the better fit. For a London home, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need careful planning.
If your home is listed, like Kew Palace about 1 mile north-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work. Period properties close to The Barn Church can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

Questions from North Sheen
Is the heat pump grant available in North Sheen?
North Sheen is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in North Sheen?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder typically have a say. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a system failing in a server room or water leaking from a unit, ring our 24/7 line and we’ll tell you what to do first.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Will you make a mess?
Protection goes down first: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
Do you work in North Sheen?
Yes. We work in North Sheen and the rest of Greater London, within the London and South East area we cover. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
