Air source heat pumps in Oxley's Green
In England, an air source heat pump on a house can often go in under permitted development rights. The conditions include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³ and compliance with MCS 020(a), and the unit can’t be used solely for cooling or sit within the curtilage of a listed building. We look at the planning position for your home during the survey. Common call-outs are for plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump and finding a place for the outdoor unit, across underfloor heating, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.
Homes around Oxley's Green typically have room outside for a heat pump, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

What the work involves, system by system
Hot water cylinders
The cylinder size depends on how much hot water the household uses.
Air-to-air heat pumps
Air-to-air heat pumps are now covered by permitted development rules in England, subject to conditions. A unit used solely for cooling is not covered, so check with the council.
What affects the cost of air source heat pumps
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number of rooms, units or zones
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The address and the type of property
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Your questions about air source heat pumps in Oxley's Green
Is the heat pump grant available in Oxley's Green?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Oxley's Green, if they qualify. 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.
Is a heat pump in Oxley's Green permitted development?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Oxley's Green sits inside a conservation area. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t face a road. Where necessary, we check with Rother council, which is typically the planning authority for Oxley's Green.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
What does an air-to-water heat pump cost?
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.
Do you work in Oxley's Green?
Yes. Our engineers work in Oxley's Green, as part of our area across London and the South East. Our base is in East Grinstead, West Sussex.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.

What else we do in Oxley's Green
Air source heat pumps in Oxley's Green: the local picture
About 42% of homes in the Oxley's Green area were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 80% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. 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. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Live in one of the older houses around The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. Bateman's, roughly 1.9 miles north-west, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development does not cover listed buildings.

Before you call an engineer
Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
What happens on the day
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before any work starts, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. We plan the trip to Oxley's Green around you.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- 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.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
Getting a quote
Some jobs can be priced from photos, 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.
