Air source heat pumps for South Ruislip

Homes in South Ruislip and heat pumps

Valuation Office Agency council tax records date about 42% of homes in the South Ruislip area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972. Whether the walls and loft have been insulated makes a real difference to the heat pump size for homes of that period. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.

Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Mary? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. For a home near South Ruislip station, the survey looks at whether an air-to-water or air-to-air heat pump suits better.

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in South Ruislip

Air-to-air heat pumps can qualify for a £2,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, but only in some cases. It has to replace the fossil-fuel heating, cover the whole heating demand, be fitted by an MCS certified installer and be in a home, so an add-on next to a boiler is not eligible. The work covers radiator systems, underfloor heating and air-to-water heat pumps, and common reasons people get in touch are wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating and deciding which kind of heat pump suits the home.

A terrace in South Ruislip shares walls with its neighbours, which helps keep heat in, as long as there’s a sensible spot for the outdoor unit and its noise is checked against the MCS planning standard.

For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

South Ruislip: your questions answered

Can you do air source heat pumps in South Ruislip?

Yes. South Ruislip is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.

Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in South Ruislip?

Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder usually 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.

Which manufacturers do you install and repair?

Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns that cannot wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.

Will my home qualify for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme?

Eligibility depends on the property and the scheme rules. In England and Wales, the scheme offers £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water or ground source heat pump, and £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump only in limited cases. We check before you commit.

Do you provide F-Gas records?

Yes. You get a written record of every visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before booking and we’ll gladly show you ours.

What the work involves, system by system

Radiators and underfloor heating

At lower water temperatures, radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme

Not every home qualifies and we confirm it before anything is agreed.

How we price air source heat pumps

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
  • The pipe route between the units
  • What state the existing equipment is in

Our prices page shows typical ranges, but your price depends on the job in front of us. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we will explain what it covers.

Before you get in touch

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • The make and model of the system, from the label
  • Any error code or flashing light on the display
  • The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area

Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line.

Rented and managed buildings

Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to and we’ll copy in whoever needs it.

The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.

What happens on the day

Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker, and we clear up before we go. Send us a few phone pictures and we can often price a straightforward job in South Ruislip before visiting.

  1. First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
  2. A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
  3. You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
  4. Installation follows on the agreed dates.
  5. After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.

Before we arrive

  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
  • Let us know where we can park and unload

How to get a quote

Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
