How we handle air source heat pumps in South Harewood
Many air source heat pumps can be installed as permitted development in England, without a planning application. The conditions include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³ and compliance with MCS 020(a), and the unit cannot be used solely for cooling or sit within the curtilage of a listed building. We check the rules for your property as part of the survey. The work covers radiator systems, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are checking emitters for a heat pump and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near South Harewood, so the design focuses on heat loss and radiators.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Fixed-price quotes for air source heat pumps in South Harewood
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- The condition of any existing system
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
What you pay depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, how easy the units are to reach and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
How it works
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins so it does not catch you out. For businesses, we can normally work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Visits to South Harewood are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Getting a price
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
Advice
FAQs for South Harewood
Can you do air source heat pumps in South Harewood?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and South Harewood is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Do you cover smaller places like South Harewood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, photos and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms, and we help you choose. We install both types.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
A typical installation takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short, and we explain it in advance.
Will you make a mess?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in South Harewood and across Hampshire. Let us know who the records should go to.
Why it’s worth doing now in South Harewood

For landlords and property managers
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork and we will copy in whoever needs it.
