Air source heat pumps for Swanmore

Air source heat pumps around Swanmore

About 83% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. On the National Heritage List, around 5 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Swanmore; Church of St Barnabas (grade II) is one. So the heat pump survey asks two extra questions here: is the home listed, and is it inside a conservation area?

Older homes near Church of St Barnabas may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.

About our air source heat pumps in Swanmore

We install air source heat pumps in Swanmore and across Hampshire, and we’re MCS certified. Air-to-water systems feed your radiators or underfloor heating and hot water cylinder, while air-to-air systems heat rooms directly through indoor units and can cool them too. We help you work out which suits your home. Typical jobs include questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump, on air-to-water heat pumps, underfloor heating and radiator systems.

Whether a home near Swanmore has mains gas makes a difference to the grant. Until March 2027, homes on oil or LPG without mains gas can get an extra £1,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, for an air source or ground source heat pump.

Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

Do you need air source heat pumps in Swanmore?

When a home is being extended or renovated, it’s a good moment to look at heat pumps. It’s simpler to plan radiators, pipework and a cylinder while the builders are in.

Any of these is worth a proper look:

  • Ageing boilers that will need replacing
  • Working out where a cylinder could go
  • Moving away from fossil-fuel heating

A heat loss calculation decides the size of heat pump your home needs.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
  • Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
  • Whether extra work needs your approval first

Questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can typically work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. In a place like Swanmore, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.

  1. We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
  2. We measure heat loss for every room.
  3. We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
  4. A fixed-price quote explains the cost, the grant position and the VAT.
  5. Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
  • Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
  • Keep pets and children away from the work area

Getting a price

Here’s what helps us quote: the address and the type of property, photos of the rooms or units, the make and model of any existing system and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Once you have those, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.

FAQs for Swanmore

Is the heat pump grant available in Swanmore?

Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Swanmore, if they qualify. Air-to-water and ground source systems attract £7,500. Air-to-air gets £2,500, but only where it takes over from fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s heating demand. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.

Do you cover smaller places like Swanmore?

Yes. Swanmore is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

What does an air-to-water heat pump cost?

Air-to-water work is in the £8,000–£16,000 range (0% VAT on homes), with any grant still to come off. The heat pump size, radiator changes and the cylinder decide where in that range you are. Air-to-air is priced after a survey.

Can landlords and managing agents book you?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.

Do I need planning permission for a heat pump?

Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings and their curtilages are excluded, and listed building consent is a separate matter, so we check for your property.

Which accreditations do you hold?

F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.

After we’ve gone

So the system stays in good health:

  • Leave indoor units unobstructed
  • Keep up with insulation and draught-proofing
  • File the MCS certificate safely

The warranty on the heat pump is the manufacturer’s, on its own terms. We explain the terms for your brand, including any servicing conditions.

Leave space around the outdoor unit. Airflow is what it runs on so keep it unobstructed.

Let and managed properties

We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed-price quote.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.

From one of our customers

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
