Our engineers work in Oakthorpe Park on air source heat pumps. A look at the job first, a fixed-price quote and written records at the end.

- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- No space for a hot water cylinder
Air source heat pumps in Oakthorpe Park, done properly
Every installation starts with a heat loss survey. That tells us how much heat the home needs, room by room so the system is sized to match. Guesswork leads to systems that are too big or too small. Common call-outs are for questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and deciding on the outdoor unit position, across hot water cylinders, underfloor heating and radiator systems.
For flats in Oakthorpe Park, the lease, the freeholder and the rules for flats all come into it. The planning rules for flats are stricter than for houses, so we check the position before we design.
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.

What we’re called out for in Oakthorpe Park
Many enquiries start with a question about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme. Eligibility depends on the property, the system and the scheme rules, so we check before you commit.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Ageing boilers that will need replacing
- No space for a hot water cylinder
If your home is near Palmers Green station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.

- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it
Questions from Oakthorpe Park
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Oakthorpe Park?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Oakthorpe Park?
Oakthorpe Park is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
Some radiators may be fine as they are, and some may need to be larger. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.
Will you make a mess?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers £7,500 to eligible homes in England and Wales though not every home qualifies.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Do you work on all makes?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
What air source heat pumps cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Planning decisions, which rest with the council
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
- Formal advice on VAT for your situation

The process
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site 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, and we tidy up before we leave. Before a visit in Oakthorpe Park, we ask where the van can stop and how we reach the outdoor unit.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- The survey measures heat loss room by room and looks at radiators, hot water and the best spot for the outdoor unit.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you’re eligible for and the VAT explained.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
How to prepare
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
How to get a quote
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. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

Air source heat pumps around Oakthorpe Park
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 53% of homes in and around Oakthorpe Park before 1919, and the 2021 Census found about 49% of households live in flats. Older homes can lose heat faster, so a room-by-room heat loss calculation, and sometimes insulation or larger radiators, comes before sizing a heat pump. 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. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.
Live in one of the older houses around St Michael-at-Bowes? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.
