Air source heat pumps in Tattenhoe, done properly
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Tattenhoe and the rest of Milton Keynes. 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. The work covers underfloor heating, hot water cylinders and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, and common reasons people get in touch are radiators that may be too small for a heat pump and planning and permitted development questions.
Homes around Tattenhoe normally have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder, so heat loss, radiators and the electrics are what we check.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Common questions in Tattenhoe
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Tattenhoe?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Tattenhoe, if they qualify. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. You do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will you come out to Tattenhoe?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
How quickly will you reply?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
That depends on your home and the unit’s position. Flats have different limits, conservation areas have extra conditions, and an Article 4 direction can remove the rights, so we check during the survey.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We are an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Do you work on all makes?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Because we plan from pictures or a survey, a job in Tattenhoe can usually be finished in one visit.
- We find out about your home and the heating you have now.
- We measure heat loss for every room.
- We design the system, check the radiators and cylinder and look at the outdoor unit position.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Before we arrive
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
Ask for a quote
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because every property is different. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 or email us.
Advice
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Disconnecting or servicing a gas boiler
- Getting planning permission or listed building consent on your behalf
- A grant for a home that does not meet the scheme rules
If in doubt, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits make a real difference. Our advice:
- File the MCS certificate safely
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Diary the next service
We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Heat pumps tend to work best running steadily rather than in short bursts so we set the controls up with you.
Book a service every year. Check the manufacturer’s terms, as they may include servicing conditions.
What a heat pump looks like in Tattenhoe
About 52% of homes in Tattenhoe and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data, and the 2021 Census found about 74% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Lower heat loss in recent homes often means a smaller heat pump and fewer radiator changes. Houses usually have space for an outdoor unit and a hot water cylinder. About 45 miles out from central London, Tattenhoe is part of the South East area we work across.
Older homes near St Giles's Church may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed. If your home is listed, like Bletchley Park about 2.1 miles east, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

What happens if it’s left?
Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air is easier with the facts. Air-to-water works with radiators and a cylinder, with a £7,500 grant for eligible homes, while air-to-air heats and cools rooms and has a £2,500 grant only in limited cases, and we explain which fits your home. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less.
