Common problems we fix in Streatham Park
Homes off the gas grid, heated by oil or LPG, are often good candidates to look at. Until March 2027, an extra £1,500 is available for air source and ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas where the home is eligible.
What we are most often called about:
- Ageing boilers that will need replacing
- Radiators that may be too small for a heat pump
- Wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating
Homeowners near Streatham station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that.

Air source heat pumps in Streatham Park
Air source heat pumps collect heat from outdoor air and bring it inside with electricity running the compressor and fans. The technology is close to air conditioning, which is why we install both, and air-to-air heat pumps are sometimes simply called air conditioning. We’re often asked to deal with working out whether radiators need upsizing and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, across hot water cylinders, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.
In a London area like Streatham Park, many homes are flats or terraces with little outside space, which affects which heat pump suits. Air-to-water needs room for the outdoor unit and typically a cylinder, while an air-to-air system needs less space.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What affects the cost of air source heat pumps
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How easy the units are to reach
- The condition of any existing system
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
A single unit or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You will have a fixed price before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What to send for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
For landlords and property managers
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed-price quote.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
Heat pumps in Streatham Park: local notes
VOA council tax data put about 63% of homes in the Streatham Park area before 1919, and Census 2021 figures found about 66% of households live in flats. Older homes can lose heat faster, so a room-by-room heat loss calculation, and sometimes insulation or larger radiators, comes before sizing a heat pump. Flats are often harder for air-to-water systems, so we look at whether air-to-air suits better. For a London home, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need careful planning.
If your home is listed, like Kingswood House about 2.6 miles east, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

Streatham Park: your questions answered
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Streatham Park?
In many cases, yes, once the lease and the building’s rules are checked. 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.
Do I need planning permission for a heat pump in Streatham Park?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The Streatham Park Conservation Area takes in the middle of Streatham Park. The permitted development rules for heat pumps leave out listed buildings and stop outdoor units going on road-facing walls or roofs in conservation areas. Anything outside the rules needs an application, and we raise it with the local planning authority (for Streatham Park, normally Lambeth council) first.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
Do you work in Streatham Park?
Yes. We cover Streatham Park and the rest of Greater London, as part of our area across London and the South East. To book, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them and stick to the interval they set.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, on every job. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
The process
The first job on site is protection: 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. The work on site takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes, and we tidy up before we leave. Parking bays, permits and roof or balcony access are the first things we ask about in Streatham Park.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you are hoping for.
- 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.
- A fixed-price quote follows, setting out the system, any grant that applies and the VAT.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- Once it’s running correctly, the MCS certificate is issued and we show you the settings.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Let us know where we can park and unload
