Air source heat pumps for Roundbush Green

Air source heat pumps in Roundbush Green, done properly

Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside with electricity running the compressor and fans. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. We’re often asked to deal with ageing boilers that will need replacing and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant, on radiator systems, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and underfloor heating.

Older and listed homes in villages like Roundbush Green need extra care, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Honest limits

We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what air source heat pumps won’t do:

  • Tax rulings, which only HMRC can give
  • Grants for hybrid systems or replacements of low-carbon systems
  • Draught-proofing and insulation upgrades

If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.

Parts of the system we cover

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

Looking after your system

To keep the system working properly:

  • Let the heat pump run steadily, as set up at handover
  • Book a yearly service
  • Know the servicing conditions in your warranty

If anything does not seem right after installation, ring us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will talk it through. A yearly service is a good habit.

Keep radiators and indoor units unobstructed so the heat can get into the room.

Roundbush Green questions

Is Roundbush Green within the area you cover?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Roundbush Green?

Roundbush Green is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.

What warranty do I get?

Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that cannot wait. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.

Do you protect the property while you work?

We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.

How long will it take to install a heat pump?

An installation takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. We confirm the timing after the survey, and you can phone 07833 053749 or send an email to book it.

Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?

We find out during the survey. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are and any changes are in the quote.

Homes in Roundbush Green and heat pumps

About 84% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these. About 16 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Roundbush Green, Judds Cottage (grade II*) among them. Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with Uttlesford council, typically the planning authority here before the heat pump design is finished.

If your home is one of the older properties near Parish Church of St Mary, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Barrington Hall, roughly 3.1 miles north-west, is a reminder to check your home’s listing status: permitted development does not cover listed buildings.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is and we’re happy to deal with whoever it is.

We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Essex. Larger buildings can be done in stages around the people who use them.

From one of our customers

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
