Air source heat pumps around Temple
About 42% of homes across Temple and its surrounding area date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data. For homes of that age, the survey checks the insulation, the radiators and the hot water setup.
With Harleyford Manor about 0.9 miles west, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.

Air source heat pumps in Temple
We install air source heat pumps in Temple and across Buckinghamshire, 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. If the problem is comparing heat pump types and questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, we can sort it out.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Temple, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Don’t block radiators or indoor units with furniture
- File the MCS certificate safely
- Keep up with insulation and draught-proofing
The warranty on the heat pump is the manufacturer’s, on its own terms. We go through the conditions with you, including any servicing they ask for.
Heat pumps prefer steady, low-temperature running, using the settings agreed at handover.
Your questions about air source heat pumps in Temple
Is the heat pump grant available in Temple?
Yes, the scheme covers homes in England, including Temple, if they qualify. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Will a heat pump in Temple need planning permission?
There’s no single answer: the building and the outdoor unit position decide it. A conservation area takes in the middle of Temple. 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 Windsor and Maidenhead council, which is usually the planning authority for Temple first.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are also Checkatrade members.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
Air-to-water installations cost £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. Air-to-air systems are priced after a survey, with the VAT confirmed on your quote.
How quickly will you reply?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Which brands do you work with?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and explain why.
Common problems we fix in Temple
For homes with no mains gas, heated by oil or LPG, a heat pump is well worth considering. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme includes an extra £1,500, until March 2027, for air source or ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas where the home is eligible.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Working out where a cylinder could go
- Working out whether radiators need upsizing
- Wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating
Period properties close to Church of All Saints can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the quote is based on a survey, photos or a diagnosis
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
The process
You don’t need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. If a lane or gateway near Temple is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- 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.
- We install, commission and register the system under MCS.
Before we arrive
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
Getting a quote
Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
