About our air source heat pumps in Rowner
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. If you have a combi boiler and no cylinder, the survey looks at where one could go. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. The work covers air-to-water heat pumps, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and people most often call us about wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
For a house near Rowner, space outside is rarely the problem, so the main questions are heat loss, radiators and the electrics.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Why act early in Rowner
A heat pump sized without a proper heat loss survey can struggle in cold weather or run inefficiently. Doing the survey properly from the start avoids that. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

Air source heat pumps in Rowner: the local picture
The coast is only about 2 miles from Rowner. Coastal sites are worth mentioning at the survey, as salt air affects the outdoor unit and its fixings. About 70% of homes in and around Rowner date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup.
A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.

The process
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you don’t need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. In a place like Rowner, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you’re hoping for.
- 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.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
Advice
What we are called out for in Rowner
Homes off the gas grid, heated by oil or LPG, are often good candidates to look at. Until March 2027, an extra £1,500 is available for air source and ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas, subject to the scheme rules.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Deciding on the outdoor unit position
- Radiators that may be too small for a heat pump
Older homes near St Matthew's may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Rowner
Does being near the sea make a difference to air source heat pumps in Rowner?
It can. Rowner is within about 2 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.
Do you cover smaller places like Rowner?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
How soon will you get back to me?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
How long does a heat pump installation take?
A typical installation takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short and agreed before work begins.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
It depends on your home, your heating and whether you want cooling. The grant is £7,500 for eligible air-to-water systems and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases. We explain the options after the survey.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
After we have gone
Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Diary the next service
- Read the manufacturer’s warranty terms for your brand
- Keep the outdoor unit clear all year
Where we applied for a Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, we keep you informed through the process, as the installer applies for it.
Let the heat pump run steadily rather than switching it on and off as explained at handover.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
