About our air source heat pumps in Titsey
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation, and as the installer we apply for it on your behalf. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. If the problem is questions about listed buildings or conservation areas and questions about where the outdoor unit can go, we can help.
Space for an outdoor unit is rarely an issue near Titsey, so the design comes down to heat loss, radiators and hot water.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. 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 a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Titsey can be planned properly.
- It begins with your house and the heating it relies on now.
- 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.
- Cost, grant and VAT appear on one fixed-price quote.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Census 2021 figures found about 66% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
If your home is listed, like Titsey Place about 0.3 miles west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
What air source heat pumps can’t fix
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Tax advice on your own circumstances
- Any gas work on the existing boiler
- Planning approval where permitted development does not apply
Not sure which it is? You can ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Common questions in Titsey
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Titsey?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. The half-mile around the middle of Titsey holds about 6 listed buildings and structures. 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 the planning department at Tandridge council, normally the authority for Titsey first.
Is Titsey within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
How long will it take to install a heat pump?
An installation 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, so give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form to arrange one.
Can I get a grant for an air-to-air heat pump?
Sometimes, and the amount is £2,500 rather than £7,500. It must replace fossil-fuel heating and meet the full heating demand of a home, installed by an MCS certified installer.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
It varies from room to room. The survey compares each radiator with the room’s needs and the quote shows what’s needed.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that can’t wait. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
What we are called out for in Titsey
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, subject to the scheme rules.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- No space for a hot water cylinder
- Choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air
- Questions about listed buildings or conservation areas
Older homes near Church of St James the Greater may need extra checks for planning and heat loss before a heat pump is designed.
What your quote should include
