Air source heat pumps in Pearson's Green

Air source heat pumps in Pearson's Green, done properly

We begin with a room-by-room heat loss survey. That tells us how much heat the home needs, room by room so the system is sized to match. Sizing by rule of thumb is not good enough. If the problem is questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, we can sort it out.

In a place like Pearson's Green, some homes are listed, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.

Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.

Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.

Homes in Pearson's Green and heat pumps

About 69% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. The centre of Pearson's Green lies within a conservation area. About 5 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Pearson's Green, Pearsons Farmhouse (grade II) among them. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?

Scotney Castle lies about 5 miles south. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions. A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.

What happens if it’s left?

A sudden boiler failure rarely leaves room to plan a heat pump properly. Planning ahead gives time for the heat loss survey, the design and the grant application while the old heating still works. Planning ahead for a job in Pearson's Green means we can bring everything needed.

Our prices page shows typical ranges, but each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Common questions in Pearson's Green

Will you come out to Pearson's Green?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Pearson's Green?

Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Pearson's Green, if they qualify. 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 does an air-to-water heat pump cost?

£8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) for air-to-water, before the grant. Your price depends on the survey, the emitters and the hot water, and you get a fixed-price quote.

Will my radiators work with a heat pump?

We find out during the survey. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.

Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?

In England, many air source heat pumps on houses can be permitted development provided the conditions are met. These include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³, compliance with MCS 020(a), not being used solely for cooling and not being within the curtilage of a listed building.

Will skipping a service affect the warranty?

It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Keep every service record either way.

Can you set up regular servicing?

Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.

The process

Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Pearson's Green.

  1. First we talk through the property and the current system.
  2. A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
  3. We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
  4. You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
  5. Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Get a fixed-price quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.

What air conditioning won’t do

In fairness, some problems need a different answer:

  • Tax advice on your own circumstances
  • Insulation work, such as loft or cavity wall insulation
  • Gas boiler work, such as disconnecting the old boiler, which needs a Gas Safe registered engineer
