How we handle air source heat pumps in Sipson
A heat pump takes heat from the outside air and moves it into your home, using electricity to drive the process. It works on the same principle as air conditioning, run the other way, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. Typical jobs include moving away from fossil-fuel heating and working out whether radiators need upsizing, on hot water cylinders, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-water heat pumps.
In a flat in Sipson, the lease and the freeholder typically decide where a heat pump can go. Permitted development limits are different for flats, and we check before designing.
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.

Looking after your system
Simple habits make a real difference. We recommend:

- File the MCS certificate safely
- Diary the next service
Equipment warranties come from the manufacturer. We explain the terms for your brand, including any servicing conditions.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. It needs good airflow to collect heat from outside so keep it unobstructed.
What happens on the day
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Send us a few phone pictures and we can often price a straightforward job in Sipson before visiting.
- It starts with a conversation about the home, the existing heating and your plans.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- 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.
How to prepare

- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

Advice
Homes in Sipson and heat pumps
About 34% of homes across Sipson and its surrounding area have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data. Newer homes normally lose less heat, which tends to suit a heat pump well. For a London home, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need careful planning.
Live in one of the older houses around Christ Church? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. Historic houses such as Osterley House, about 4.3 miles east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.
Sipson is about 1 mile south-east of West Drayton, in Greater London. Sipson gets the same approach as every job we take on: diagnosis first, a fixed price and proper paperwork when we’ve finished.

Your questions about air source heat pumps in Sipson
Can you do air source heat pumps in Sipson?
Yes. Sipson is one of the places we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Can I have air conditioning in a flat in Sipson?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder normally 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.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
Expect £8,000–£16,000 for an air-to-water system, with 0% VAT on homes, before the grant is taken off. Where you land depends on the size of heat pump, any radiators that need changing and the hot water cylinder, and air-to-air systems are priced after a survey.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Does servicing affect my 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.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
The right choice depends on the property and what you need. The grant is £7,500 for eligible air-to-water systems and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases, and we set out the options after the survey.
Safe owner checks
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
What air conditioning won’t do
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Tax advice on your own circumstances
- Getting planning permission or listed building consent on your behalf
- Gas boiler work, such as disconnecting the old boiler, which needs a Gas Safe registered engineer
If in doubt, give us a ring on 07833 053749 and we’ll say what we think before you book.
