How we handle air source heat pumps in Old Wolverton
Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. Homes with a combi boiler may not have a cylinder, so finding space for one is part of the survey. Air-to-air systems do not heat hot water, so you will need another way to do that. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, air-to-air heat pumps and underfloor heating, and people most often call us about an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and no space for a hot water cylinder.
Homes around Old Wolverton typically have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder, so heat loss, radiators and the electrics are what we check.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, 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.

Homes in Old Wolverton and heat pumps
About 63% of homes in Old Wolverton and the neighbourhoods around it were built before 1919, according to VOA council tax data, and about 56% of households live in terraced houses, according to the 2021 Census. In older homes, the heat loss calculation is especially important, as solid walls and draughts change the size of heat pump needed. In a terrace, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need particular care.
Period properties close to Holy Trinity Church can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. For a home near Wolverton station, the survey looks at whether an air-to-water or air-to-air heat pump suits better.

The process
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It 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. A few pictures let us plan a visit to a place like Old Wolverton.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.

Old Wolverton questions
Will a heat pump in Old Wolverton need planning permission?
It depends on the property. The Wolverton Conservation Area is close to the centre of Old Wolverton. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights don’t reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask the planning department at Milton Keynes council, usually the authority for Old Wolverton.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Old Wolverton?
Old Wolverton is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and isn’t an add-on to a boiler. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
Expect £8,000–£16,000 for an air-to-water system, with 0% VAT on homes, before the grant is taken off. The heat pump size, radiator changes and the cylinder decide where in that range you are, and air-to-air systems are priced after a survey.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you cover Old Wolverton?
Yes. Our engineers work in Old Wolverton, as part of our area across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead, West Sussex.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
