What happens on the day

You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Rew Street.

  1. First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
  2. The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
  3. You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
  4. Installation follows on the agreed dates.
  5. We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.

Before we arrive

  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

How to get a quote

Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Rew Street

Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside, using electricity to drive the process. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way and the Energy Saving Trust notes that air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes referred to as air conditioning. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump and finding a place for the outdoor unit.

Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Rew Street, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.

If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Common questions in Rew Street

Do you cover smaller places like Rew Street?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Rew Street?

Rew Street is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.

Can you set up regular servicing?

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, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

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’re happy to show ours.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Rew Street and across the Isle of Wight. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

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.

How much time does a heat pump install need?

The work takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. The survey lets us set a firm programme, and you can call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk to book it.

What a heat pump looks like in Rew Street

Rew Street lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Near the coast, we choose the outdoor unit position with salt-laden wind in mind. The 2021 Census found about 86% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses typically have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder. Rew Street’s centre falls inside a designated conservation area. About 5 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Rew Street, Rew Street Farmhouse (grade II) among them. For a heat pump, permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with Isle of Wight council, usually the planning authority here where needed.

If your home is one of the older properties near All Saints' Church, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Osborne House lies about 2.8 miles east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.

Rew Street is about 1 mile south-west of Cowes, in the Isle of Wight. Homes and businesses alike in Rew Street, our engineers can help with air source heat pumps. You will hear back from us the same working day and our emergency line runs 24/7. Count every place we list in the Isle of Wight and you reach 125, with Rew Street on the list. The nearest of our city pages is Worthing, around 41 miles from Rew Street.

Our working area takes in PO31 in full. Our engineers work on Rew Street, Harness Lane and Westview Road and the roads around them. Other places close to Rew Street include Northwood (1 mile east), Gurnard (1 mile north-east), Cowes (1 mile north-east), Great Thorness (2 miles south-west) and Noke Common (2 miles south-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Newport (4 miles south-east), Ryde (8 miles east), Sandown (10 miles south-east) and Shanklin (10 miles south-east). Remote and island properties need a little more planning, so tell us where you are when you ask for a quote for air source heat pumps.

System by system

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme

Eligibility depends on the property and the scheme rules and we confirm it before anything is agreed.

Heat loss surveys

Without a proper survey, a heat pump can be too big or too small, and both cause problems.

When it’s something else

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Improving the building’s insulation
  • Grants for hybrid systems or replacements of low-carbon systems
  • Getting planning permission or listed building consent on your behalf

If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Radiator systems
  • Air-to-water heat pumps
  • Air-to-air heat pumps
  • Underfloor heating
  • Homes heated by oil, LPG or gas
  • Hot water cylinders

Keeping the system healthy

So the system stays in good health:

  • Find out the grant position at the survey
  • Keep up with insulation and draught-proofing
  • Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you

Handover includes the controls and how to get the best from a heat pump. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off, and we will explain the settings for your home.

Heat pumps prefer steady, low-temperature running as explained at handover.

What a customer said

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
