Homes in Souldern and heat pumps
The centre of Souldern lies within the Souldern Conservation Area. On the National Heritage List, around 27 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Souldern; Church of St Mary (grade II*) is one. Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with the local planning authority (normally Cherwell council) before the heat pump design is finished. Census 2021 figures found about 77% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Every heat pump design starts with a room-by-room heat loss calculation.

Air source heat pumps in Souldern, done properly
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. The work covers hot water cylinders, radiator systems and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are working out where a cylinder could go and checking emitters for a heat pump.
Homes around Souldern normally have room outside for a heat pump, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Why act early in Souldern
For eligible off-gas homes on oil or LPG, an extra £1,500 is on offer until March 2027. If that applies to you, it’s worth asking about sooner rather than later. Planning ahead for a job in Souldern means we can bring everything needed.
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 are not sure what’s needed, call us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier for straight advice and a fixed price.

How the job changes from property to property
Hot water cylinders
Existing cylinders may not be suitable for a heat pump, and we explain whether yours can stay.
Air-to-air heat pumps
A £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant is available for air-to-air only if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the full heating demand. It also has to be fitted by an MCS certified installer, in a home.
Common problems we fix in Souldern
Some homes heated by electric heaters or storage heaters consider a heat pump instead. The survey tells you whether it’s practical and what’s involved, and we explain the grant position for your home.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
If your home is one of the older properties near Church of the Annunciation to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.

Questions from Souldern
Is Souldern within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Souldern?
Souldern is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, it’s £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. Air-to-air systems are priced after a survey, with the VAT confirmed on your quote.
How it works
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes, and we tidy up before we leave. For a village like Souldern, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- The survey measures heat loss room by room and looks at radiators, hot water and the best spot for the outdoor unit.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
