Air source heat pumps in Sulham, done properly
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler which means some radiators may need upsizing. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes and anything that needs changing is in the quote. If you are dealing with deciding on the outdoor unit position and working out where a cylinder could go, we can help.
Older and listed homes in villages like Sulham need extra care, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Rented and managed buildings
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we will keep everyone informed.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
Air source heat pumps in Sulham: the local picture
Historic England lists about 12 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Sulham, including Sulham Farmhouse (grade II*). That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where necessary, we check with the local planning authority (usually West Berkshire council). Valuation Office Agency council tax records date about 65% of homes in Sulham and the neighbourhoods around it to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and the last census (2021) found about 86% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup. Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
Older homes near Church of St Nicholas may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed. Mapledurham House lies about 2 miles north-east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.

Common questions in Sulham
Is the heat pump grant available in Sulham?
Sulham is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. 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. We hold MCS certification, so the application is ours to make for you.
Do you cover smaller places like Sulham?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, it’s £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant. Air-to-air prices are set after a survey, and we confirm the VAT on the quote.
Are you F-Gas certified?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
How soon will you get back to me?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Will you make a mess?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
