Air source heat pumps in Pease Pottage
We install air source heat pumps in Pease Pottage and across West Sussex, and we’re MCS certified. Air-to-water systems feed your radiators or underfloor heating and hot water cylinder, while air-to-air systems heat rooms directly through indoor units and can cool them too. We’ll explain which type fits your home and why. We’re often asked to deal with checking emitters for a heat pump and comparing heat pump types, on underfloor heating, radiator systems and hot water cylinders.
For a house near Pease Pottage, space outside is rarely the problem, so heat loss, radiators and the electrics are what we check.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

What we are called out for in Pease Pottage
People also ask about air-to-air heat pumps because they heat and cool. They warm rooms directly through indoor units, and can cool them when it’s hot. Whether a grant applies depends on the scheme conditions.
Customers normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Checking whether planning permission is needed
- No space for a hot water cylinder
- Checking eligibility for a heat pump grant
Tyes Place lies about 3.4 miles south. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications

What else we do in Pease Pottage
How we price air source heat pumps
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of system it is
- How easy the units are to reach
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are unsure, ring 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- The make and model of the system, from the label
Quotes don’t take long. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.
What air conditioning will not do
Not every problem is solved by air source heat pumps, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Promising eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Insulation work, such as loft or cavity wall insulation
- Tax advice on your own circumstances
If in doubt, call us on 07833 053749 and we will say what we think before booking.
What the work covers
- Radiator systems
- Air-to-air heat pumps

Questions from Pease Pottage
Is Pease Pottage within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is the heat pump grant available in Pease Pottage?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Pease Pottage is in England, where it applies. 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.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Do you work on all makes?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Pease Pottage and across West Sussex. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
How it works
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you don’t need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Getting to the outside of the property matters more than parking in a place like Pease Pottage.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- The design covers the heat pump, emitters, hot water and outdoor unit.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
How to prepare
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
Getting a price
Here’s what helps us quote: the address and the type of property, photos of the rooms or units, the make and model of any existing system and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then phone 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
