How we handle air source heat pumps in Regents Park

Hot water from an air-to-water system is stored in a cylinder. Homes with a combi boiler may not have a cylinder, so finding space for one is part of the survey. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. If you’re dealing with working out where a cylinder could go and working out whether radiators need upsizing, we can help.

Homes around Regents Park normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder, so heat loss, radiators and the electrics are what we check.

Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

Regents Park questions

Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Regents Park?

It can, as Regents Park is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We site outdoor units out of the worst of the sea wind where possible and can suggest models with corrosion protection where the manufacturer offers it.

Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Regents Park?

It depends on the property. The half-mile around the middle of Regents Park holds about 5 listed buildings and structures. 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 Southampton council, typically the authority for Regents Park.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant?

Eligibility depends on the property and the scheme rules. In England and Wales, the scheme offers £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water or ground source heat pump, and £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump only in limited cases. We check before you commit.

Will my radiators work with a heat pump?

The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Where a radiator is already large enough, it stays, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.

Will you work on another installer’s system?

Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.

Air source heat pumps in Regents Park: the local picture

Regents Park is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal sites are worth mentioning at the survey, as salt air affects the outdoor unit and its fixings.

Southampton Tudor House and Garden lies about 2 miles south-east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions. Period properties close to Church of the Holy Trinity can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.

Regents Park is about 2 miles west of Southampton, in Southampton. We cover Regents Park for air source heat pumps, along with the rest of Southampton. We cover 40 places across Southampton, large and small. You can also see our page for Guildford, roughly 44 miles from Regents Park.

Different systems, different jobs

Air-to-water heat pumps

Air-to-water systems take heat from the air and put it into your central heating and hot water. It replaces the boiler as the main heat source, and is MCS certified when we install it.

Outdoor unit position and planning

Flats and blocks of flats have different limits, and Article 4 directions can remove rights. Listed buildings also need separate consent, and we check the position for your property.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us

Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.

Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.

Why it’s worth doing now in Regents Park

Radiators that are too small for a heat pump’s lower flow temperature leave rooms cool. Checking and upsizing them as part of the installation avoids that. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.

Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.

Why book with us

  • A site survey and a fixed-price quote
  • F-Gas certified company
  • NICEIC approved for electrical work
  • MCS certification for heat pump work

How the visit works

The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that 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. Photos of the room and the outside wall help us plan a job near Regents Park.

  1. We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
  2. 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.
  3. A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
  4. Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
  5. Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.

How to prepare

  • Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
  • Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Ask for a quote

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
