Heat pump installers in Stisted
For air source heat pumps in Stisted, one call is all it takes, from the first look to sign-off. An F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved, on Checkatrade.

- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Radiators that may be too small for a heat pump
Why deal with it now?
Radiators that are too small for a heat pump’s lower flow temperature leave rooms cool. The survey picks this up before installation. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

Air source heat pumps in Stisted, done properly
An air-to-water heat pump costs £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. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. Typical jobs include questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme and ageing boilers that will need replacing, on hot water cylinders, radiator systems and air-to-water heat pumps.
For a home around Stisted that’s off mains gas and heated by oil or LPG, an extra £1,500 is available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme until March 2027, on top of the £7,500.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

How it works
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it doesn’t catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Stisted.
- You tell us about the home and what you want from a heat pump.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We recommend air-to-water or air-to-air and check the grant position.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly:
- Avoid switching the heat pump on and off often
- Clear leaves and debris from the outdoor unit
- Ask about the grant before you commit
Once commissioned, we register the installation with MCS and give you the certificate. Keep it with the manufacturer’s paperwork for future reference.
Don’t cover radiators with furniture or heavy curtains, as the system relies on them giving out heat.
Owner checks or an engineer?
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Stisted questions
Can I fit a heat pump in Stisted without planning permission?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The centre of Stisted is in the Stisted 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 local planning authority (for Stisted, usually Braintree council).
Will you come out to Stisted?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that can’t wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
As a guide, it takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. We plan the work so you are without heating for as little time as possible, and we explain it in advance.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Does the grant cover air-to-air heat pumps?
Yes, but only where it becomes the home’s main heating. The £2,500 applies when it replaces the fossil-fuel heating, covers the full heating demand, is fitted by an MCS certified installer and serves a home. Fitted alongside a boiler, it will not qualify.
Air source heat pumps in Stisted: the local picture
About 75% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
If your home is one of the older properties near Parish Church of All Saints, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.
