How we handle air source heat pumps in Selsey
Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. Common call-outs are for planning and permitted development questions and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, on homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, underfloor heating and air-to-water heat pumps.
Plenty of older homes in Selsey can run on a heat pump, sometimes with larger radiators or more insulation. The heat loss calculation shows what’s needed.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Running several properties is easier with one contractor. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in Selsey
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go

What else we do in Selsey
Heat pumps in Selsey: local notes
Selsey lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Salt air is hard on outdoor units, so a heat pump near the sea needs a sensible position and regular checks, and some models offer corrosion protection for coastal sites. About 74% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs. If your home is one of the older properties near St Peter's Church, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- The survey checks heat loss, emitters, hot water and the outdoor unit position.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
FAQs for Selsey
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Selsey?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Central Selsey is a short walk from the Selsey Conservation Area. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the local planning authority (for Selsey, usually Chichester council).
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Selsey?
It can, as Selsey is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. The outdoor unit position, its fixings and regular servicing all help near the sea.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
For air-to-water, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any grant. Eligible homes in England and Wales can get £7,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, and we confirm eligibility before you commit.
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. The survey helps decide. Both are part of what we install.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.

“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.”
