How we handle air source heat pumps in Shanklin Village
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. Homes with a combi boiler may not have a cylinder, so finding space for one is part of the survey. With air-to-air, hot water has to come from something else. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, air-to-water heat pumps and radiator systems, and the jobs we see most are checking whether planning permission is needed and checking eligibility for a heat pump grant.
Homes in Shanklin Village are often flats and terraces, where outside space is limited, which affects which heat pump suits. Air-to-water needs room for the outdoor unit and normally a cylinder, while air-to-air units take less room.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Shanklin Village
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so the files stay tidy.
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
What happens if it’s left?
Getting the sizing wrong causes problems that are hard to fix later. Doing the survey properly from the start avoids that. Allow time for any approvals your building in Shanklin Village needs.
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but your price depends on the job in front of us. For a fixed-price quote, give us a ring on 07833 053749, and we’ll talk you through it.

Air source heat pumps in Shanklin Village: the local picture
About 66% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). For flats, the first questions are where an outdoor unit could go, whether a cylinder fits and what the lease allows. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.
If your home is listed, like Nonsuch Mansion about 1.6 miles north-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work. Homeowners near Belmont station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that.

FAQs for Shanklin Village
Is a heat pump in Shanklin Village permitted development?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central Shanklin Village sits inside a 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 planning department at Sutton council, usually the authority for Shanklin Village.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Shanklin Village?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder typically have a say. Permitted development rules for flats are tighter than for houses, so we check the outdoor unit position and give you the details to send to the freeholder or managing agent.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that cannot wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Do you cover Shanklin Village?
Yes. We cover Shanklin Village and the rest of Greater London, as part of our area across London and the South East. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749.
