- Replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
Do you need air source heat pumps in Rooksdown?
A common reason is wanting to stop burning gas, oil or LPG. With a heat pump, the heat comes from the air outside and the system runs on electricity and that’s the appeal for many households.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Questions about where the outdoor unit can go
- Moving away from fossil-fuel heating
- An oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life
With The Vyne about 2.2 miles north-east, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.
Questions to ask before booking
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it
Air source heat pumps in Rooksdown
Installing an air source heat pump in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, then 5%. That follows HMRC Notice 708/6, and it does not apply to businesses. For air-to-air systems, we confirm the VAT on your quote. Please treat this as general information rather than tax advice. If you’re dealing with deciding on the outdoor unit position and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant, we can sort it out.
Older homes around Rooksdown can be draughty or have solid walls, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulating first makes more sense.
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.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Let us know how to reach the outside wall or outdoor unit at your property near Rooksdown.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you’re eligible for and the VAT explained.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.
How to prepare
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Clear access to the fuse board
Getting a price

Advice
Rooksdown questions
Is Rooksdown within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Rooksdown?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Rooksdown, if they qualify. 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. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. You get a written record of each visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
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.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
Air-to-water heats radiators or underfloor heating and hot water; air-to-air heats rooms through indoor units and can cool them. With air-to-air, hot water needs another source and the survey helps decide.

Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we will price it together.

Air source heat pumps in Rooksdown: the local picture
Rooksdown’s centre is no more than about a third of a mile from the Park Prewett Conservation Area. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area? About 47% of homes in Rooksdown and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and about 41% of households live in terraced houses, according to the 2021 Census. Lower heat loss in recent homes often means a smaller heat pump and fewer radiator changes. In a terrace, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need particular care.
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.
