Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Peckham Bush
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation, and as the installer we apply for it on your behalf. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. The work covers hot water cylinders, air-to-air heat pumps and air-to-water heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are not knowing whether a grant applies and no space for a hot water cylinder.
For a home around Peckham Bush that is off mains gas and heated by oil or LPG, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme adds an extra £1,500 until March 2027 for an air source or ground source heat pump, on top of the £7,500.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Air source heat pumps in Peckham Bush: the local picture
Census 2021 figures found about 71% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these. There are 2 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Peckham Bush. Historic England lists about 14 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Peckham Bush, including Newark House (grade II). Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with the local planning authority (typically Tonbridge and Malling council) before the heat pump design is finished.
Period properties close to Church of the Holy Trinity can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. Old Soar Manor, roughly 3.8 miles north-west, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings.

Common questions in Peckham Bush
Is Peckham Bush within the area you cover?
Yes. Peckham Bush is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Peckham Bush?
Peckham Bush is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Are you F-Gas certified?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?
Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings are excluded, and listed building consent is separate. We check what applies to you.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
It depends on each radiator and the room it heats. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and we help you choose. We install both types.
Can you set up regular servicing?
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.
How the visit works
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. On site, the work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. We plan the trip to Peckham Bush around you.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- The system is installed and connected to the controls.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
How to prepare
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers grants towards heat pumps: £7,500 for air-to-water and ground source, and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases. The installer applies.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
- Keep the MCS certificate with the manufacturer’s paperwork
- Use the settings explained at handover
If anything does not seem right after installation, ring 07833 053749 and we will talk it through. Annual servicing helps keep the system working well.
Do not cover radiators with furniture or heavy curtains so the heat can get into the room.
Before you call an engineer
Do not move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and ring us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
A customer’s words
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
