About our air source heat pumps in Summerstown
Every installation starts with a heat loss survey. It shows how much heat each room needs on a cold day, so the heat pump and the radiators or indoor units can be sized properly. Guesswork leads to systems that are too big or too small. If the problem is plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump and not knowing whether a grant applies, we can sort it out.
A terrace in Summerstown shares walls with its neighbours, which helps keep heat in, provided the outdoor unit can sit somewhere that passes the MCS noise check.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Common questions in Summerstown
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Summerstown?
Summerstown 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. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Do I need permission to put air conditioning in my flat in Summerstown?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder usually 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.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
A typical installation takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short, and we explain it in advance.
Do you work in Summerstown?
Yes. We work in Summerstown and across Greater London, within the London and South East area we cover. For a fixed-price quote, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s 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.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
What’s the difference between air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps?
The right choice depends on the property and what you need. The grant is £7,500 for eligible air-to-water systems and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases, and we set out the options after the survey.

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Not every home qualifies, so we check before you commit.
Radiators and underfloor heating
At lower water temperatures, radiators give out less heat so we check them against each room’s heat loss.
Heat pumps in Summerstown: local notes
VOA council tax data put about 53% of homes across Summerstown and its surrounding area before 1919, and about 61% of households live in flats, according to the 2021 Census. Period properties can still suit a heat pump, but the design has to start from accurate heat loss figures. A flat may have no room for a hot water cylinder, and the freeholder usually has a say on the outdoor unit, which can tip the choice towards air-to-air. London homes can be short of space for an outdoor unit and cylinder, which affects the choice of heat pump.
If your home is listed, like Southside House about 2.4 miles south-west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work. If your home is near Earlsfield station and heated by a gas boiler, an air-to-water heat pump can replace it where the survey shows it suits.

How the visit works
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, and that takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. Some blocks in Summerstown need contractor details in advance, so tell us what your building needs.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- From those figures we size the heat pump and decide on radiators, cylinder and outdoor position.
- A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
How to prepare
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

Looking after your system
To keep the system working properly:
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
- Do not block radiators or indoor units with furniture
- Use the settings explained at handover
Equipment warranties come from the manufacturer. We go through the conditions with you, including any servicing they ask for.
Keep insulation and draught-proofing in good order, as lower heat loss means the system has less to do.

What happens if it’s left?
A heat pump sized without a proper heat loss survey can struggle in cold weather or run inefficiently. A room-by-room survey gets it right first time. Getting the work done in Summerstown before summer avoids the busiest weeks.
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we’ll explain each part.
