How we handle air source heat pumps in Priestwood
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. If the problem is deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home and planning and permitted development questions, we can sort it out.
Older homes around Priestwood can be draughty or have solid walls, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulating first makes more sense.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

About 38% of homes in Priestwood and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures. Lower heat loss in recent homes often means a smaller heat pump and fewer radiator changes.

What happens on the day
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, check the system and talk you through it. On site, the work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Seeing the property in pictures first helps us plan the trip to Priestwood.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you are hoping for.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time

Advice
FAQs for Priestwood
Is Priestwood within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Do you cover Priestwood for air source heat pumps?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Priestwood is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and we help you choose. Both are part of what we install.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. We check them all during the survey, so the quote covers any changes.
Will you make a mess?
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 have done.
Why it’s worth doing now in Priestwood
If the emitters can’t give out enough heat, some rooms won’t get warm enough. Checking and upsizing them as part of the installation avoids that. Getting the date in early helps for a job in a place like Priestwood.
Putting several jobs into one visit often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.

What the work involves, system by system
Air-to-air heat pumps
An air-to-air system heats rooms directly and can also provide cooling. Hot water needs a separate source, so that has to come from elsewhere.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Not every home qualifies and we confirm it before anything is agreed.
After we have gone
A little care keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Seal draughts where you can
- Keep radiators clear
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off, and we’ll explain the settings for your home.
Let the heat pump run steadily rather than switching it on and off, using the settings agreed at handover.
From one of our customers
“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.”
