Heat pump installers in Penny Pot
For air source heat pumps in Penny Pot, one call is all it takes: diagnosis, fixed price, work and sign-off. An F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved, on Checkatrade.
- Working out where a cylinder could go
- Plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump
- A boiler that is getting old
What we do, step by step
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Penny Pot easier.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- The design covers the heat pump, emitters, hot water and outdoor unit.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
Advice
How we handle air source heat pumps in Penny Pot
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. The system must replace the existing fossil-fuel heating and meet the home’s full heating demand, it must be installed by an MCS certified installer, and it must be in a home, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, radiator systems and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are comparing heat pump types and radiators that may be too small for a heat pump.
In a place like Penny Pot, some homes are listed, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Leave it or put it right?
The two types suit different homes and needs. Air-to-water works with radiators and a cylinder, with a £7,500 grant for eligible homes, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms and has a £2,500 grant only in limited cases, and we explain which fits your home. An early booking makes the visit to Penny Pot easier to arrange.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you are unsure, ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form for straight advice and a fixed price.

FAQs for Penny Pot
Is Penny Pot within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Is the heat pump grant available in Penny Pot?
Penny Pot is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Will I need planning consent for an air source heat pump?
Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings and their curtilages are excluded, and listed building consent is a separate matter. We check what applies to you.
What does an air-to-water heat pump cost?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. Your price depends on the survey, the emitters and the hot water, and you get a fixed-price quote.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
That depends on the room’s heat loss and the radiator’s size. We check them all during the survey and the quote shows what’s needed.
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. Every visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Heat pumps in Penny Pot: local notes
Historic England lists about 4 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Penny Pot, including Scotts Grove House (grade II). Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with Surrey Heath council, typically the planning authority here before the heat pump design is finished. The 2021 Census found about 81% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
If your home is one of the older properties near Church of St Lawrence, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Botleys Mansion, roughly 4.4 miles north-east, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development does not cover listed buildings.

Heat loss surveys
