What the work involves, system by system
Radiators and underfloor heating
Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so radiators may need to be larger, and the survey checks each one.
Outdoor unit position and planning
Where the outdoor unit goes depends on airflow, access and the route into the house. Noise is part of the MCS 020(a) check, so we consider nearby homes too.
About our air source heat pumps in Oxhey
Every installation starts with a heat loss survey. It shows how much heat each room needs on a cold day so the system is sized to match. Guesswork leads to systems that are too big or too small. If you’re dealing with wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating and deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home, we can help.
Whether a home near Oxhey has mains gas makes a difference to the grant. Homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas can get an extra £1,500 on the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, for an air source or ground source heat pump.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Pricing air source heat pumps in Oxhey
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the units are to reach
- What state the existing equipment is in
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
Our prices page shows typical ranges, but your price depends on the job in front of us. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
What to send for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- The remote or wall controller showing any error

Oxhey: your questions answered
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Oxhey?
Oxhey 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. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Is Oxhey within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?
That depends on your home and the unit’s position. Flats have tighter limits, conservation areas add conditions, and Article 4 directions can remove rights, so we check during the survey.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Disconnecting or servicing a gas boiler
- Planning approval where permitted development does not apply
- Promising eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.

What a heat pump looks like in Oxhey
About 16 miles out from central London, Oxhey is part of the South East area we work across. The Bushey High Street Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Oxhey, within about a third of a mile. 4 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Oxhey. Historic England lists about 37 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Oxhey, including Church of St James (grade II*). So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?
Period properties close to Church of St James can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. Headstone Manor, roughly 3.7 miles south, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings.
