Homes in Tidworth and heat pumps
About 43% of homes in Tidworth and the neighbourhoods around it have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data. Newer homes typically lose less heat, which tends to suit a heat pump well. Historic England lists about 10 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Tidworth, including Church of the Holy Trinity (grade II*). Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with the planning team at Test Valley council, which normally handles Tidworth before the heat pump design is finished.
Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.
Tidworth is about 8 miles west of Andover, in Hampshire. Properties in Tidworth get the same service as everywhere we cover: diagnosis first, a fixed price and proper paperwork when we have finished. Our area takes in 683 places across Hampshire, from busy centres to quieter spots. There’s also a page for Guildford, about 47 miles away.

Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Tidworth
As an MCS certified installer, we fit air source heat pumps for homes in Tidworth and the rest of Hampshire. 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 checking emitters for a heat pump and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, we can help.
Older homes around Tidworth can be draughty or have solid walls, so a proper heat loss calculation matters. Sometimes insulating first makes more sense.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

How the visit works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Seeing the property in pictures first helps us plan the trip to Tidworth.
- It starts with a conversation about the home, the existing heating and your plans.
- A heat loss survey works out how much heat each room needs, and we look at the radiators, the cylinder space and where the outdoor unit could go.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- The system is commissioned and registered under MCS, and we show you how to use it.
How to prepare
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
Getting a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.
Advice
Why deal with it now?
The 0% VAT rate on heat pumps in homes runs until 31 March 2027, then 5% applies. If you’re thinking about a heat pump, that date is worth knowing alongside your own plans for the property. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
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 system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you are unsure, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.

Do you need air source heat pumps in Tidworth?
An ageing boiler is often the moment people start thinking about a heat pump. Starting early leaves time for the survey, the design and any grant application, rather than rushing a replacement in winter.
It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:
- Planning and permitted development questions
- No space for a hot water cylinder
- Plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump
If your home is one of the older properties near Church of the Holy Trinity, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen.
What to look for in a quote
- If the quote is based on a survey, pictures or a diagnosis
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved

Questions from Tidworth
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Tidworth?
Tidworth 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’re MCS certified.
Do you cover smaller places like Tidworth?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Do you work on all makes?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
How soon will you get back to me?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. For a breakdown that can’t wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. Each visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
A typical installation takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. The programme is planned to keep time without heating short, and we explain it in advance.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.
When it’s something else
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Promising eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Tax advice on your own circumstances
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
