About our air source heat pumps in Purbrook
Every installation starts with a heat loss survey. It shows how much heat each room needs on a cold day, so the heat pump and the radiators or indoor units can be sized properly. Sizing by rule of thumb isn’t good enough. Common call-outs are for ageing boilers that will need replacing and questions about where the outdoor unit can go, across radiator systems, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-water heat pumps.
Around Purbrook, most people asking about heat pumps have a gas boiler now. We survey the heat loss, radiators, hot water and the outdoor unit position, then design and quote.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

FAQs for Purbrook
Is the heat pump grant available in Purbrook?
Purbrook is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Will a heat pump in Purbrook need planning permission?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Historic England lists about 5 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Purbrook. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the planning department at Havant council, normally the authority for Purbrook.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Are you F-Gas certified?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
That depends on the brand. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.

Signs you need air source heat pumps in Purbrook
When a home is being extended or renovated, it’s a good moment to look at heat pumps. Pipework, radiators and space for a cylinder are easier to plan while work is going on.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- Questions about where the outdoor unit can go
- A boiler that’s getting old
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Warblington Castle lies about 3.3 miles south-east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.

Before you call an engineer
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. In a town like Purbrook, we fit the visit around you.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- We install the heat pump and connect it up.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Advice
Pricing air source heat pumps in Purbrook
Your quote is based on your property. We consider:
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
