Common questions in Tilford Common
Is Tilford Common in your area for air source heat pumps?
We do: Tilford Common falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Do you cover smaller places like Tilford Common?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. 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 will work out which band applies to yours.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we will explain them and stick to the interval they set.
How much time does a heat pump install need?
A typical installation takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. We plan the work so you are without heating for as little time as possible, and we explain it in advance.
Are my radiators big enough for a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. We check them all during the survey, so the quote covers any changes.
