How we handle air source heat pumps in Stratford
Every installation starts with a heat loss survey. That tells us how much heat the home needs, room by room so the system is sized to match. Sizing by rule of thumb is not good enough. If the problem is working out whether radiators need upsizing and working out where a cylinder could go, we can help.
A terrace in Stratford shares walls with its neighbours, which helps keep heat in, provided the outdoor unit can sit somewhere that passes the MCS noise check.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Questions from Stratford
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Stratford?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder typically 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.
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Stratford?
Stratford is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. For an air-to-water heat pump the amount is £7,500; an air-to-air system can get £2,500 if it replaces the fossil-fuel heating outright, meets the home’s full heating demand and is not an add-on to a boiler. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
What’s the price of a heat pump installation?
£8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) for air-to-water, before the grant. Your price depends on the survey, the emitters and the hot water and the quote is fixed.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
We find out during the survey. Where a radiator is already large enough, it stays, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.
Should I choose air-to-water or air-to-air?
Air-to-water replaces the boiler for heating and hot water, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms. The survey helps decide. We install both types.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Common problems we fix in Stratford
An ageing boiler is often the moment people start thinking about a heat pump. Planning the change before the boiler fails gives you time to survey, design and apply for any grant, rather than rushing a replacement in winter.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Deciding on the outdoor unit position
- No space for a hot water cylinder
- Checking eligibility for a heat pump grant
Homeowners near Stratford (London) station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards

Homes in Stratford and heat pumps
VOA council tax data show about 55% of homes in and around Stratford were built in 2000 or later, and about 73% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. Lower heat loss in recent homes often means a smaller heat pump and fewer radiator changes. For flats, the first questions are where an outdoor unit could go, whether a cylinder fits and what the lease allows. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.
Sutton House lies about 2.1 miles west. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.

How it works
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. If a freeholder or agent needs to agree the work in Stratford, we can send them the details.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
- The price comes back fixed and in writing, with the grant and VAT shown line by line.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
