Air source heat pumps in Ranmore Common
Installing an air source heat pump in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, then 5%. This is HMRC’s energy-saving materials relief, which applies to homes rather than businesses. For air-to-air systems, we confirm the VAT on your quote. This is general information, not tax advice. If you’re dealing with questions about where the outdoor unit can go and no space for a hot water cylinder, we can sort it out.
Older and listed homes in villages like Ranmore Common need extra care, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
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, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. For a village like Ranmore Common, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- 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.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
How to prepare
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Ranmore Common: your questions answered
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Ranmore Common?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Around 4 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Ranmore Common. A heat pump on a house can be permitted development if it meets the conditions, including the MCS noise check, but not within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit can’t face a road. Where necessary, we check with Mole Valley council, which is typically the planning authority for Ranmore Common.
Will you come out to Ranmore Common?
Yes. Ranmore Common is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
As a guide, it takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before we start.
Does the grant cover air-to-air heat pumps?
A £2,500 grant is available in some cases. Adding air-to-air alongside a boiler does not qualify as it has to meet the full heating demand.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone and we will gladly show you ours.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Ranmore Common
You will get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- The brand, model and parts involved
- What electrical work the job needs
- The condition of any existing system
What you pay depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, how easy the units are to reach and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
Before you get in touch
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Avoid switching the heat pump on and off often
- Find out the grant position at the survey
The warranty on the heat pump is the manufacturer’s, on its own terms. We explain the terms for your brand, including any servicing conditions.
Keep radiators and indoor units unobstructed, as the system relies on them giving out heat.
