Air source heat pumps in Temple Fortune
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. Sizing by rule of thumb is not good enough. Common call-outs are for deciding on the outdoor unit position and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, on radiator systems, air-to-water heat pumps and underfloor heating.
A terrace in Temple Fortune shares walls with its neighbours, which helps keep heat in, as long as there’s a sensible spot for the outdoor unit and its noise is checked against the MCS planning standard.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

What owners can safely do
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Do not move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.

Questions from Temple Fortune
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Temple Fortune?
Temple Fortune is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. Whether your home qualifies, and for how much, depends on the type of heat pump and the heating it replaces. The installer applies, and we are MCS certified.
Can you fit air conditioning in a London flat in Temple Fortune?
Often, yes, but the lease and the freeholder normally have a say. We look at where the outdoor unit could go, such as a balcony, flat roof or rear wall, and write it up for the freeholder or agent.
Which type of heat pump is right for my home?
Air-to-water suits homes with radiators and a cylinder; air-to-air suits rooms that need heating and cooling, and we help you choose. Both are part of what we install.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
Some radiators may be fine as they are, and some may need to be larger. At the lower temperatures a heat pump uses, radiators need more surface so we check every radiator against the room’s heat loss.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from pictures and details for simple jobs. A fixed-price quote follows.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before you book, and we’re happy to show ours.
Different systems, different jobs
Heat loss surveys
We look at walls, windows, floors, roofs and ventilation along with the room sizes.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
Only one grant is available per property, and it can’t replace a low-carbon system. Hybrids are excluded.
How it 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. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes anything from a couple of days for air-to-air to the best part of a week for air-to-water with radiator changes. Photos of the room and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan most of a visit to Temple Fortune in advance.
- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- You get our view on the right type for the house, and on whether the Boiler Upgrade Scheme applies.
- The system is installed and connected to the controls.
- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Air source heat pumps around Temple Fortune
About 52% of homes in Temple Fortune and the neighbourhoods around it were built before 1919, according to VOA council tax data. Period properties can still suit a heat pump, but the design has to start from accurate heat loss figures. London homes can be short of space for an outdoor unit and cylinder, which affects the choice of heat pump.
If your home is one of the older properties near Saint Mary and Archangel Michael Church, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Heath Hall lies about 1.3 miles east. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.
