Different systems, different jobs
Radiators and underfloor heating
At lower water temperatures, radiators give out less heat, and the survey checks each one.
Heat loss surveys
A heat loss survey measures how much heat each room loses on a cold day. It’s the basis for sizing the heat pump and the radiators.
Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Speen
In England, an air source heat pump on a house can often go in under permitted development rights. 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 look at the planning position for your home during the survey. If the problem is moving away from fossil-fuel heating and planning and permitted development questions, we can help.
In a place like Speen, some homes are listed, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so consent comes first.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

What a heat pump looks like in Speen
The centre of Speen lies within the Speen Conservation Area. In the mile around Speen’s centre, 3 conservation areas have been designated. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 9 within half a mile of the centre, such as Rose Cottage (grade II). Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with the local planning authority (usually Buckinghamshire council) before the heat pump design is finished. About 48% of homes in and around Speen date from 1945 to 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 85% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Hughenden Manor lies about 3.1 miles south. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions. Older homes near Speen Church (Baptist) may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
Speen is about 5 miles north of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. Whether you’re in the middle of Speen or further out, our engineers cover air source heat pumps, from a single room to a whole building. In Buckinghamshire alone we list 263 places and Speen is among them. You can also see our page for London, about 32 miles away.
Jobs in HP27 are looked at, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Streets in the area include St Peters Close, Studridge Lane and Chapel Hill, and we cover them all. Neighbouring places we cover include Upper North Dean (1 mile south-east), Bryant's Bottom (1 mile east), Walter's Ash (1 mile south), Lower North Dean (1 mile south-east) and Stony Green (1 mile east). Larger places within reach include Aylesbury (9 miles north), High Wycombe (5 miles south), Chesham (8 miles east) and Marlow (8 miles south).
Landmarks near Speen
Around Speen, our work takes us to homes and businesses near King William IV Public House, among other places. Speen’s nearest station is Saunderton station, about 2.1 miles south-west.

Open spaces near Speen include Beacon Hill and Prestwood Local Nature Reserve.
Why deal with it now?
The extra £1,500 for homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas is available until March 2027. If that applies to you, it’s worth asking about sooner rather than later. A system that’s left with a fault, or without a service, typically costs more to run.
The cost depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, how easy the units are to reach and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What air conditioning will not do
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- A grant for a home that does not meet the scheme rules
- 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
Not sure which it is? You can call 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions from Speen
Will you come out to Speen?
Yes. Speen is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is the heat pump grant available in Speen?
Speen is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
When will I hear back?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
Air-to-water systems are £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before any grant. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder and the quote is fixed.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.

How the visit works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Speen.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- 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.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- We fit the outdoor unit and connect it to the heating, hot water and controls.
- Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
