Air source heat pumps in Tongwell, done properly
Every installation starts with a heat loss survey. That tells us how much heat the home needs, room by room, so the heat pump and the radiators or indoor units can be sized properly. Guesswork leads to systems that are too big or too small. If you are dealing with finding a place for the outdoor unit and planning and permitted development questions, we can help.
Older and listed homes in villages like Tongwell need extra care, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so consent comes first.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Pricing air source heat pumps in Tongwell
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The size of the job
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Air source heat pumps in Tongwell: the local picture
At about 48 miles from central London, Tongwell sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East. About 77% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Finding room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder is seldom a problem in homes like these.
If your home is one of the older properties near Church of St Mary Magdalene, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. If your home is listed, like Linford Manor about 1.2 miles west, listed building consent comes before any heat pump work.
Tongwell is about 1 mile south of Newport Pagnell, in Milton Keynes.

After we’ve gone
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Ask about the grant before you commit
- Keep to regular servicing
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
We show you how to use the controls and explain how a heat pump works differently from a boiler. Steady running suits a heat pump better than switching on and off so we set the controls up with you.
Let the heat pump run steadily rather than switching it on and off, using the settings agreed at handover.
What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few days for most air-to-water installations, with air-to-air systems often quicker, and we tidy up before we leave. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Tongwell.
- First we find out about the property, the heating you have now and what you’re hoping for.
- On the visit we calculate what every room loses on a cold day, then check the radiators, room for a cylinder and outdoor unit options.
- The price comes back fixed and in writing, with the grant and VAT shown line by line.
- Fitting day: the outdoor unit is placed, the indoor side connected and the controls set up.
- We commission the heat pump, complete the MCS paperwork and talk you through the controls.
Getting ready for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
Getting a price
Here’s what helps us quote: the address and the type of property, pictures of the rooms or units, the make and model of any existing system and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Once you have those, phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.

Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Am I eligible for a heat pump grant?
Eligibility depends on the property and the scheme rules. In England and Wales, the scheme offers £7,500 towards an eligible air-to-water or ground source heat pump, and £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump only in limited cases. We check before you commit.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
What the work involves, system by system
Heat loss surveys
The survey covers the building fabric and how air moves through it along with the room sizes.
Air-to-water heat pumps
An air-to-water heat pump heats water for your radiators or underfloor heating and your hot water cylinder. It takes over from the boiler and we install it to MCS standards.
From one of our customers
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
