Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Terriers
An air-to-water heat pump heats water to a lower temperature than a typical boiler, so radiators may need to be larger to give out the same heat. The survey shows which rooms are fine and which need changes, and the quote sets it out. If you are dealing with choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air and working out where a cylinder could go, we can sort it out.
Older homes around Terriers can be draughty or have solid walls, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulation first is the better investment.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. Let us know how to reach the outside wall or outdoor unit at your property near Terriers.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- 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.
- After commissioning, you get the MCS certificate and a handover.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Store the MCS certificate and warranty documents together
- Use the settings explained at handover
- Know the servicing conditions in your warranty
If anything does not seem right after installation, phone 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will look into it. A yearly service is a good habit.
Don’t cover radiators with furniture or heavy curtains, as the system relies on them giving out heat.
FAQs for Terriers
Is a heat pump in Terriers permitted development?
It comes down to the building and the spot chosen for the outdoor unit. The Amersham Hill Conservation Area is close to the centre of Terriers. On a house, an air source heat pump can often go ahead under permitted development, with an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 cubic metres and an installation that meets MCS 020(a), which includes a noise check. Those rights don’t reach the grounds of a listed building, and conservation areas rule out walls or roofs facing a road. If that might affect you, we ask Buckinghamshire council, which is normally the planning authority for Terriers.
Is Terriers within the area you cover?
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.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
Some radiators may be fine as they are, and some may need to be larger. Heat pumps run at lower flow temperatures, so radiators give out less heat so we check every radiator against the room’s heat loss.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
The work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. The survey lets us set a firm programme, and you can call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk to book it.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Why deal with it now?
From 1 April 2027, VAT on heat pumps in homes rises from 0% to 5%. If you are thinking about a heat pump, that date is worth knowing alongside your own plans for the property. Booking before summer means the work near Terriers is done before the hot weather.
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
