Questions from Stud Green
Is the heat pump grant available in Stud Green?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Stud Green, if they qualify. 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. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Stud Green?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. Central Stud Green sits inside a conservation area. 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 planning department at Windsor and Maidenhead council, usually the authority for Stud Green first.
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.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so check the terms or ask us. Keep every service record either way.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Air source heat pumps in Stud Green
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme can provide £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water system in England and Wales, and as the installer we apply for it on your behalf. Eligibility depends on the property, so we confirm it before anything is agreed. The work covers homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, air-to-water heat pumps and radiator systems, and the jobs we see most are an oil, LPG or gas boiler near the end of its life and replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump.
If your home in or near Stud Green is heated by oil, LPG or electric heaters with no mains gas, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme adds an extra £1,500 until March 2027 for an air source or ground source heat pump, on top of the £7,500.
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stud Green
A sudden boiler failure rarely leaves room to plan a heat pump properly. Surveying and designing in advance means the system is sized right and any grant is applied for before you need the heat. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
Putting several jobs into one visit can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.

What we are called out for in Stud Green
Some homes heated by electric heaters or storage heaters consider a heat pump instead. The survey tells you whether it’s practical and what’s involved, and we explain the grant position for your home.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Comparing heat pump types
- Questions about listed buildings or conservation areas
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
- If the quote is based on a survey, pictures or a diagnosis
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
What we do, step by step
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. For a place like Stud Green, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- 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.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- Installation, commissioning and MCS registration complete the job.
Before we arrive
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know where we can park and unload

Quotes do not take long. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
