About our air source heat pumps in Sibford Gower
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 homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, underfloor heating and air-to-water heat pumps, and people most often call us about choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air and questions about listed buildings or conservation areas.
For a home around Sibford Gower that is off mains gas and heated by oil or LPG, an extra £1,500 is available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, on top of the £7,500.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Sibford Gower
Facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings book us too in Sibford Gower and across Oxfordshire. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building to keep disruption down.
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.
How it works
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Sibford Gower easier.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area

Advice
Homes in Sibford Gower and heat pumps
Census 2021 figures found about 82% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder.
Broughton Castle lies about 4 miles east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions. If your home is one of the older properties near Church of Holy Trinity, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Read the manufacturer’s warranty terms for your brand
- Ask about the grant before you commit
- Seal draughts where you can
Once commissioned, we register the installation with MCS and give you the certificate. File it with the warranty documents, as you may need it later.
Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and stored items. Airflow is what it runs on so keep it unobstructed.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Sibford Gower
Will a heat pump in Sibford Gower need planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. Central Sibford Gower sits inside the Sibford Gower and Burdrop Conservation Area. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with the local planning authority (for Sibford Gower, typically Cherwell council) first.
Is Sibford Gower within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
How much VAT is charged on a heat pump in a home?
For homes, currently none: until 31 March 2027 the rate is 0% in residential accommodation, then 5%. The relief is not available to businesses, and with air-to-air we confirm the VAT on the quote. This is general information, not tax advice.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Sibford Gower and across Oxfordshire. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
