About our air source heat pumps in Twitham
Air-to-water heat pumps heat your hot water through a cylinder. Homes with a combi boiler may not have a cylinder, so finding space for one is part of the survey. Air-to-air systems don’t heat hot water, so you will need another way to do that. If you’re dealing with moving away from fossil-fuel heating and choosing between air-to-water and air-to-air, we can sort it out.
In a place like Twitham, some homes are listed, and permitted development doesn’t cover listed buildings, so we check consent first.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

What affects the quote in Twitham
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How many units are involved
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
- The equipment or parts the job needs
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Before you get in touch
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
Need a price for air source heat pumps? Please phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and tell us about the job. We’ll explain what we’d recommend and why, then send a fixed-price quote before anything is booked.
Rented and managed buildings
From a single flat to a whole estate, the approach is the same: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.
What happens if it’s left?
The 0% VAT rate on heat pumps in homes runs until 31 March 2027, then 5% applies. If you are thinking about a heat pump, that date is worth knowing alongside your own plans for the property. Getting the date in early helps for a place like Twitham.
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will explain each part.

What else we do in Twitham
Twitham: your questions answered
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Twitham?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Twitham is in England, where it applies. 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 do not apply yourself: the MCS certified installer does, which is us.
Will you come out to Twitham?
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.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
What warranty do I get?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
£8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) for air-to-water, before the grant. The final price depends on the heat loss survey, the radiators and the cylinder and the quote is fixed.
When will I hear back?
The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Heat pumps in Twitham: local notes
About 37% of homes in and around Twitham were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 78% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). In older homes, the heat loss calculation is especially important, as solid walls and draughts change the size of heat pump needed. Detached and semi-detached houses typically have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. Central Twitham is inside a conservation area. About 8 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Twitham, Church of St James (grade I) among them. Where a home is affected, the outdoor unit position is settled with Dover council, typically the planning authority here before the heat pump design is finished.
If your home is one of the older properties near Church of St James, the survey checks whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before the outdoor unit position is chosen. Goodnestone Park lies about 1.6 miles south. Owners of listed homes need consent before a heat pump is fitted, so it’s one of our first questions.

How the visit works
The first job on site is protection: 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. It takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system, and we tidy up before we leave. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Twitham.
- First we talk through the property and the current system.
- A heat loss survey is carried out, room by room.
- The design covers the heat pump, emitters, hot water and outdoor unit.
- You get a fixed price, with any grant and the VAT set out.
- Then it’s fitted, commissioned and registered with MCS.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
