MCS certified installation of air source heat pumps for heating and hot water, with the boiler upgrade scheme grant applied for, for Runfold and the surrounding area. Ask us for a fixed-price quote, and we will reply the same working day.
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Comparing heat pump types
- Questions about where the outdoor unit can go
What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Runfold.
- It starts with a conversation about the home, the existing heating and your plans.
- 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.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
Get a fixed-price quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Advice
About our air source heat pumps in Runfold
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler which means some radiators may need upsizing. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes, and the quote sets it out. If you’re dealing with checking eligibility for a heat pump grant and ageing boilers that will need replacing, we can sort it out.
In a place like Runfold, some homes are listed, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler and it’s worth keeping safe.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.

What air conditioning won’t do
Air source heat pumps cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Gas boiler work, such as disconnecting the old boiler, which needs a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Tax advice on your own circumstances
- Grants for hybrid systems or replacements of low-carbon systems
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What affects the quote in Runfold
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- How many units are involved
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- What electrical work the job needs
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
Simple jobs can often be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Wide pictures of the room or the existing unit
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
