Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in St Mary Bourne
For an air-to-water heat pump, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation and the installer makes the application. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. If the problem is questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump, we can sort it out.
In a place like St Mary Bourne, some homes are listed, because permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Replacing a boiler in a hurry when it breaks leaves little time to consider a heat pump. Surveying and designing in advance means the system is sized right and any grant is applied for while the old heating still works. Getting the date in early helps for a place like St Mary Bourne.

Questions from St Mary Bourne
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in St Mary Bourne?
St Mary Bourne is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Is a heat pump in St Mary Bourne permitted development?
It depends on the property. Central St Mary Bourne sits inside the St Mary Bourne and Stoke Conservation Area. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the planning department at Basingstoke and Deane council, normally the authority for St Mary Bourne.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
It takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. How much of the heating changes decides most of the time and the timing is set out with your quote.
How soon will you get back to me?
You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
That depends on the brand. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Do you work on all makes?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. We check them all during the survey and the quote shows what’s needed.
How it works
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally we test, record and explain. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. For a village like St Mary Bourne, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- Every room’s heat loss is worked out on site.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
