Before you call an engineer
Do not move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
About our air source heat pumps in Tring
Until 31 March 2027, a heat pump installed in residential accommodation carries 0% VAT, with 5% from 1 April 2027. This is HMRC’s energy-saving materials relief, which applies to homes rather than businesses. For air-to-air systems, we confirm the VAT on your quote. This is general information, not tax advice. Typical jobs include no space for a hot water cylinder and checking whether planning permission is needed, across underfloor heating, air-to-air heat pumps and hot water cylinders.
Older homes around Tring can be draughty or have solid walls, which a heat loss calculation will show. Sometimes insulating first makes more sense.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved, and we tidy up before we leave. We load the van from the survey notes so the work in Tring can be done in one go where possible.
- We start with your plans and the property.
- We survey for heat loss and look at radiators, cylinder space and outdoor unit options.
- We explain which type of heat pump suits the home and whether a grant could apply.
- Installation follows on the agreed dates.
- We commission it, complete the MCS certificate and show you how to use it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 56 within half a mile of the centre, such as The Mansion (grade II*).

Live in one of the older houses around Church of St Peter St Paul (church of England)? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status. With Cholesbury Manor House about 2.9 miles south, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.

Tring questions
Does the Boiler Upgrade Scheme cover homes in Tring?
Tring is covered, as the scheme runs across England and Wales. It gives £7,500 towards an air-to-water or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 towards an air-to-air heat pump that replaces the fossil-fuel heating and meets the whole home’s heating need. You don’t apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Is Tring within the area you cover?
Yes. Tring is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
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. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects and stick to the interval they set.
How does the warranty work?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning and we explain the terms for your brand on the quote.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. A few tips:
- Use the settings explained at handover
- Clear leaves and debris from the outdoor unit
- Leave indoor units unobstructed
If you were eligible for a grant, we handle the application and keep you updated, as the installer applies for it.
Leave space around the outdoor unit. It needs good airflow to collect heat from outside, so keep it clear all year.
When it’s something else
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Tax rulings, which only HMRC can give
- Improving the building’s insulation
- Promising eligibility for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
