How we handle air source heat pumps in Pyrford
A £2,500 grant is available for some air-to-air heat pumps, with conditions. 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 radiator systems, underfloor heating and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are checking whether planning permission is needed and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air.
Whether a home near Pyrford has mains gas makes a difference to the grant. Until March 2027, homes on oil or LPG without mains gas can get an extra £1,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, for an air source or ground source heat pump.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Pricing air source heat pumps in Pyrford
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The equipment or parts the job needs
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.
How it works
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it does not catch you out. For businesses, we can normally work room by room or zone by zone. On site, it takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Photos of the room and the outside wall help us plan a job near Pyrford.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you’re hoping for.
- We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you are eligible for and the VAT explained.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- The system is commissioned and registered under MCS, and we show you how to use it.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
Getting a quote

Looking after it afterwards
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:
- Look at insulation alongside the heat pump
- Clear leaves and debris from the outdoor unit
- Keep to regular servicing
After commissioning, the installation is registered under MCS and you receive the certificate. File it with the warranty documents, as you may need it later.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. Airflow is what it runs on, so keep it clear all year.
Questions from Pyrford
Do you cover smaller places like Pyrford?
Yes. Pyrford is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Pyrford?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Pyrford 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’re MCS certified.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?
That depends on your home and the unit’s position. Flats have different limits, conservation areas have extra conditions, and an Article 4 direction can remove the rights and we look at it during the survey.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. Each visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a system failing in a server room or water leaking from a unit, ring our 24/7 line and we’ll agree what happens next.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are and any changes are in the quote.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them and stick to the interval they set.
Air source heat pumps in Pyrford: the local picture
About 41% of homes in Pyrford and the neighbourhoods around it date from 1945 to 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and Census 2021 figures found about 73% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Whether the walls and loft have been insulated makes a real difference to the heat pump size for homes of that period. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder. There are 7 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Pyrford. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 3 within half a mile of the centre, such as The Lodge Cottage (grade II). So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?
Byfleet Manor, roughly 2.2 miles east, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings. Period properties close to Church of the Good Shepherd can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.
